This geographic information system combines detailed information and location coordinates for oil wells, gas wells, and pipelines from the Commission's files with base map data captured from U.S. Geological Survey 7.5 minute quadrangle maps. These interactive maps were developed using Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) ArcIMS software, and interface with the Commission's Production Data Ouery and drilling Permit Query applications. NEW! High Cost Gas Production and Wells associated with Enhanced Oil Recovery Projects are now available! With a click of the mouse you will now be able to highlight wells associated with High Cost Gas Production and Wells associated with Enhanced Oil Recovery Projects. Make your selection from within the display option of our GIS Mapping Program. Designations will be as follows: Well Logs designations - yellow Enhanced Oil Recovery - H13 designations - green High Cost Tight Sands designations - pink High Cost Tight Sands greater than 15,000 ft designations - blue Active Commercial Disposals - orange Please note: Well Log highlighting has been integrated into the new menu and is no longer a default setting. LPGAS Installation Sites are now available! To view these sites you will need zoom to street level. The GIS application is updated nightly, Monday through Friday beginning at 8:00 pm.
