Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
Wells named Galveston Bay State A
Exxon Corp.'s other wells filed under this lease name in Chambers County, newest permit first. The RRC gives a gas well its own lease number, so the name is what joins the wells of a unit.

Operator on the lease's P-4
Each operator named on the P-4 filings for this well's lease (a gas well is its own lease), from the date its filing took effect. The P-4 is filed by lease, so a date before the well was drilled is the lease's.
