Hansford County FAQ

The Hugoton-Panhandle gas system has unusually high commercial helium concentrations because of the geologic conditions under which the gas accumulated — long residence time in stable Permian-age reservoirs underlain by helium-generating basement rocks. Hansford and Moore counties sit at the helium-rich updip portion of the system.
