About this data
Raton Basin is Petrora's grouping by geography, not a regulator's record: 1 New Mexico county. County figures are counted the same way for every state: permits on the approval date, wells from each regulator's well records. New Mexico permits are each well's latest APD, and volumes are what operators filed by well. Nothing is estimated.
