FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

Delaware

Reported as a top in 12,750 wells across 10 counties, at a median depth of 4,470 ft (2,500 to 5,146 ft in most wells). 1,361 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 →
