FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

Del Rio

Reported as a top in 1,173 wells across 44 counties, at a median depth of 4,893 ft (2,021 to 9,285 ft in most wells). 15 of those wells were permitted in the last three years.

A well counts if any of its completion filings report this formation, whether it produces from it or drilled through it. Depths are measured depth as filed; typo depths exist, which is why ranges are percentiles, not extremes. About completion reports →
