Permitted fields
5 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 Zone 25, W fields, so the target formation is the Zone 25, W.

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