What became of the 18 permits

  • 1drilling startedThe operator reported a start date. No completion is on file yet.
  • 17still only a permitNothing after the permit is on file. Many permits wait a year or more, and some are never drilled.

Wells finished in the last two years: 1 south of town.

A horizontal well runs sideways underground. 1 well starts outside the 10-mile circle and ends inside it. 1 starts inside and ends 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.

When a new well starts paying

FAQ

Questions people ask

How many oil and gas wells are near Webster?

1,006 wells with a location on the Railroad Commission's map lie within 10 miles of Webster: 578 on leases that are producing, 64 not producing and 364 plugged. The state also issued 18 drilling permits with a well location in that circle in the last 24 months.

What are the coordinates on this page?

Latitude and longitude of the well's surface location in NAD83, the coordinates map apps use. They come from the Railroad Commission's well layers as published, and from its drilling permit files, which are published in the older NAD27 and converted here. 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 Webster?

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 Harris County roll lists it.

Search a name

Is drilling near Webster picking up or slowing down?

The next date on file for a lease near Webster is November 28, 2026.

How much are the oil and gas near Webster worth?

The 14 producing leases with a well within 10 miles sold about $165 million of oil and gas in their newest 12 months on file, at the public monthly prices and before taxes and costs. That is what the leases sold, not what a tract of land or a mineral interest is worth: an owner is paid a share of one lease.

A relative owned minerals near Webster and has died. What now?

The county mineral roll still lists 12 accounts in the name of an estate on leases near Webster. Search the family name first. If an account turns up, the title usually has to be moved to the heirs before the operator will pay them.

Inherited minerals: where to start

My checks from a lease here stopped. Why?

The usual reasons: the lease stopped producing, a new operator took it over, or the operator put the payments in suspense over a title or address question. Near Webster, 6 leases went quiet and 2 changed operator; both lists are on this page.

What to do when royalty checks stop

Own land or minerals near Webster?
