Permitted fields
4 fields on the W-1 · completed in one of them
Beside the district's wildcat field, the fallback for a zone no field is named for, they are all McCook fields, so the target formation is the McCook.

A field shown by number alone has no completed well or production on record, so no RRC list Petrora holds names it.
