Summary

This dataset represents the producing, dry holes, wildcat wells and wells that have other well type categories other than the ones mentioned previously in Louisiana. These wells were used to create gas and oil field polygons. The field polygons include discovery data, number of producing wells in the field, average measured depth of those well, total gas and oil production from 1977-2014, gas oil ratio (GOR), and field type. Also, included is a table with historic gas and oil production from 1977-2014.

Purpose

The purpose for creating this data is to provide the public with an overall view (Spatially) of the extent of gas and oil fields in Louisiana. Also, the type of field (i.e. gas or oil) and the cumulative production in the field from 1977-2014. The state of Louisiana provides this data from the Sonris web site within the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources. Using the information the state of Louisiana has provided it was collated into a cumulative and geospatial form for general public use.
