I have searched the internet for the depths of the Mississippi limestone, Woodford shale, Wilcox and the Simpson oil formations. I am in the process of negotiating one or two lease contracts and am going to ask for a depth clause. My location is Section 8, Township 19 North, Range 5 East in Payne County, Oklahoma. Any help with this would be appreciated as I have only been at this since April, this is a whole new language to me.
Mr. King:
In order to obtain the information about the depths of the various formations, I would contact the Oklahoma Corporation Commission Oil & Gas Conservation Division @ (405) 521-2240 and talk to Wayne Wright (Field Operations Mgr.) He should be able to help you with this matter.
Thank you, Mr. Mallory, I will give them a call tomorrow.
