FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

San Andres

Reported as a top in 89,374 wells across 49 counties, at a median depth of 4,184 ft (1,900 to 4,832 ft in most wells). 6,387 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 →
