How do you go about finding out what the drilling activity was on an old lease from 1978? I have searched everywhere I can think of, but don’t have enough information, i.e., well I.D…just know the operator’s name, block, Section, County and date. Too old to find?

The short answer is no, it’s not too old at all. Go to the Texas Railroad Commission web site:
[http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/data/online/index.php#](http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/data/online/index.php#)
There are several postings on this site related to this if you have trouble using the Railroad Commission site.
