Wellbores on record

OCC well records list 8 open wellbores (8 oil) with a surface location in this section, plus 12 plugged and 1 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.
