FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

McKee

Reported as a top in 348 wells across 9 counties, at a median depth of 8,612 ft (5,399 to 10,681 ft in most wells). 8 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 →
