FORMATIONS · RRC WELLBORE FILE

Santa Rosa

Reported as a top in 17,656 wells across 32 counties, at a median depth of 1,000 ft (635 to 1,426 ft in most wells). 2,396 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 →
