Wellbores on record

OCC well records list 3 open wellbores (2 oil and 1 other or unclassified) with a surface location in this section, plus 3 plugged.

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.
