The source rock for the oil in East Texas is the overlying Eagle Ford Shale. [5] [6] Water intrusion from deeper in Woodbine Formation is the mechanism pushing oil through the reservoir toward the producing wells. A 1932 study showed that oil wells stopped flowing when water pressure dropped below 800 pounds per square inch. [7]
The polymer flood was ended in 1989. The 1 billionth barrel of oil was produced on January 11, 1985. Between 1985 and 1991, Marathon injected more CO 2 into the central, eastern, and northern parts of the field; all of these activities improved production. [11] In 1992 there were 1,100 active production wells, along with 57 injection wells.
Wells are frequently sold or exchanged between different oil and gas companies as an asset – in large part because during falls in the price of oil and gas, a well may be unproductive, but if prices rise, even low-production wells may be economically valuable.
In 1956 Humble Oil drilled an exploratory well in state waters of Pensacola Bay, Santa Rosa County. [26] In 1959 Gulf Oil drilled the first offshore Florida well drilled from an offshore platform, off the Florida Keys. [27] All the wells drilled in state waters were dry holes. The first federal lease sale offshore Florida was in 1959.
A non-exempt well is a well capable of producing more than 17.36 gallons per minute, and must submit semi-annual water well production reports to the District at a rate of $0.155 per 1,000 gallons.
The OCS P-0130 well drilled offshore Oregon by Union Oil in 1966 was described as having "potential for commercial gas production", [17] but none of the wells were completed as producers, and the federal leases expired in 1969. [18] [19] Farther north, in Canadian waters, Shell Canada drilled 14 wells offshore from Vancouver Island from 1967 ...
