Reported injection by month
Summed from the county's wells, through Dec 2025. A month still being filed is left out, not drawn low. There is a data discrepancy in the 2024 injection record that is still under review: part of that year's volume is not matched to its wells. Statewide and operator totals for 2024 include it; some wells and counties show 2024 as under review instead of a figure.

Wells spudded, by year
In Oklahoma a spud date reaches the data with the well's completion report, usually six months to a year after drilling, so 2025 and 2026 are still arriving and are drawn lighter.

About this data
Oklahoma Corporation Commission. A well's county is the county code in its API number. Injected water is what operators filed on form 1012A for the county's wells, by month, through Dec 2025. No oil or gas production is available for Oklahoma. There is a data discrepancy in the 2024 injection record that is still under review: part of that year's volume is not matched to its wells. Statewide and operator totals for 2024 include it; some wells and counties show 2024 as under review instead of a figure. Nothing is estimated.
