OCC well records list 4 open wellbores (3 oil and 1 oil and gas) with a surface location in this section, plus 6 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.
