The 8 ringed dots are this lease's wells, each where the Railroad Commission's map puts it. The other dots are wells and drilling permits of the last 24 months on the land around it; the counts are for everything in the picture, which is about 6 miles across. The thin brown lines are the original land surveys; where there is room, a survey carries its abstract number, the number deeds and division orders cite.

6 of the 8 wells are marked plugged in the Railroad Commission's wellbore records. 2 are not plugged. A plugged well is closed for good. A well that is not plugged can be put back on production, and its operator still owes the plugging.

Other leases on these wells

The Railroad Commission files the same API numbers under one more lease too: a well keeps its number when it moves into a unit or is recompleted under another lease. A deed older than the unit may name one of them.

  • Good to know

    11 well completions are on file for this lease

    The count is of completions in the wellbore records, so a well completed more than once is counted each time. Each well can have its own unit. The decimal for one well does not have to equal the decimal for another.

  • Worth asking

    A Rule 37 case is listed

    The RRC permit records list a Rule 37 case. This does not establish your royalty share. Ask for the permit and unit plat for your well.
