What became of the 1 permit

  • 1finished, no production reported yetA completion is on file. The first production report follows weeks or months later.

A horizontal well runs sideways underground. 7 wells start outside the 10-mile circle and end inside it. 9 start inside and end outside. So a well can drain land a mile or two from the spot where it shows on a map.

A permit is permission to drill, not a well, and a well nearby says nothing about who owns the minerals under it. Direction is taken from the well's surface location. Source: Railroad Commission of Texas drilling permits and wellbore records.

What are the coordinates on this page?

Latitude and longitude of the well's surface location in NAD83, the coordinates map apps use.

Paste them into any map app. A horizontal well's bottom hole can be a mile or two away from its surface location.

Do I own minerals under a well near Timpson?

A well nearby says nothing about who owns the minerals under it. The county's mineral roll lists who is paid on each producing lease. Search a name to see whether the Shelby County roll lists it.
