Wellbores on record

OCC well records list 53 open wellbores (30 oil, 10 gas, 7 injection or disposal and 6 other or unclassified) with a surface location in this section, plus 27 plugged and 14 temporarily abandoned, orphaned or on the state-funds plugging list.

Wellbores are counted by surface location. A horizontal well drilled from a neighboring section can produce from this one without being counted here; the orders above are the better guide to that.
