FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

Panhandle Lime

Reported as a top in 2,614 wells across 17 counties, at a median depth of 2,305 ft (1,876 to 2,964 ft in most wells). 12 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 →
