The ringed dot is this lease's well, 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. Sources: Railroad Commission of Texas well layers, drilling permit files and survey lines, US Census Bureau county outlines, base map from USGS The National Map.

Other leases named Foster E
3 leases share this name in district 08. The Railroad Commission gives each gas well its own number and each oil lease another, so one unit often shows up as several of these.
2 leases in Glasscock County in the same field or with the same operator carry the Foster name. Operators often name the leases on one family's land alike, with a letter or unit number after the name. Sharing a name proves no tie: your division order says which ones pay you.

A well drilled across several tracts shares its production by an allocation formula, so the decimal is not always your acres over the unit acres. Ask the operator for the allocation formula and the tract factor for your land.
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.
