How these figures are computed

Buckhead Energy computes every figure on this page from grouped records in public oil and gas data. The page shows counts, sums, percentiles and indexes only; it does not list individual wells, leases or permits.

Counts under 3 wells and percentiles under 5 wells are withheld; totals are floors.

Share is the formation’s permits as a percent of the state’s permits that year. Median lateral length is published only when at least 5 permits stand behind it.

Last computed: 2026-11-01. These figures are informational only and are not a valuation of any mineral or royalty interest.
