What's listed: Every Ohio drilling permit filed in the last 24 months where the well had not yet started producing as of the most recent data refresh.
Why it matters: Permits signal where operators are putting capital next. A new permit on offset acreage is often the leading indicator of fresh PUD value for nearby mineral owners.
Refresh cadence: Daily. Data current as of 2026-09-06.
Disclaimer: Public-service reference. Buckhead Energy is not affiliated with the operators listed unless explicitly stated.
