Texas Form W-1
The Texas drilling permit application record used to track proposed oil and gas well activity before a well is drilled.
Texas Form W-1 is a source-record concept EnergyNetWatch keeps separate from broader activity claims.
Why It Matters
W-1 records help teams see proposed drilling activity before reported spuds and production records appear.
Where The Public Data Comes From
The source is Texas Railroad Commission drilling-permit data.
What The Record Can Show
A W-1 can show operator, lease, county, field, well purpose, proposed depth, and permit timing.
What The Record Cannot Prove
A W-1 permit does not prove the well was drilled, completed, producing, or economic.
How EnergyNetWatch Uses It
EnergyNetWatch uses W-1 records for Texas permit activity, operator movement, county concentration, and permit-to-spud follow-up.
