RE: News - PBG buys PeerlessPBG seems to have been working with newer frac technology in the Bakken. I heard an internet streaming audio once by a third party ceo who credited Petrobank to be the first to use US sourced/purchased frac techniques there early in 2007. The liner gives control that need not be the same for each section of the horizontal. I was able to google this link that has some general PBG comments

Following your prompt, I read Peerless's presentation. They seem to have been trying multiple techniques but not quite gotten up to full financial statement results with them yet. Interesting, that Crescent Point also states it has been enjoying improved results recently on its land using better horizontal techniques.
