FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

Rodessa

Reported as a top in 11,740 wells across 48 counties, at a median depth of 6,607 ft (5,020 to 8,204 ft in most wells). 520 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 →
