The below information is from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission DRILLING PERMIT database.

http://www.occeweb.com

Move the mouse to highlight DIVISIONS, OIL & GAS, and DATABASES, click the mouse.

Below the text and just above Database Links you will see County Code Table. Look up the your county and write down the CODE. You will need all 3 numbers.

Now go to the OCC Oil & Gas database website http://imaging.occeweb.com/imaging/OGWellRecords.aspx save this web address to a new ICON, this will make easier next time.

OCC Imaging - OG Well Records

Fill in the screen as follows. This will give you an idea how the database works.

Form #: 1000 drilling permit form number.

Legal Location: 30 section no. or complete location, 3003E02S or leave blank.

API: 019 enter county code, Carter county example.

Effective/Approval Date: 1/1/2011 5/5/2012, need both dates.

This will produce a list of Drilling Permits for Carter County. There are two locations for horizontal wells and one location for vertical wells. On the left hand side of page 1, about 5 lines down will be LOCATION. This is the Surface Hole Location (SHL). The Bottom Hole Location BHL should be near the bottom of page two under Lateral Holes. The (BHL) is where the royalties a produced. They do drill across section boundaries on horizontal wells, so don’t limit your search to just your section, but include the sections around yours.

This example information is from a newer drilling permit which was electronically scanned verses the older handwritten permits. It is also for a horizontal well.

If you enter: 1000, 3003S03E, 019, 1/1/2010 5/5/2012 you will see the sample.

Hope this helps. Just keep changing the second date and you can track the permit activity.

Can you tell me where to look for "Leasing Activity" within the OCC website?

I don't believe that leasing has anything to do with the OCC. The first step in which the OCC get involved, I believe and I maybe wrong, is a drilling permit.

Sorry I could not be more helpful.

The only way I know of is to asked around the community to those who are leasing theres. this info is keep secret from the general public

Here is the website for Oklahoma mineral leases.

http://okcountyrecords.com/

Select the county your interested in and then select document you would like information on. To get a detailed copy I believe you need to be a member and pay a fee.

I usually look at "OIL AND GAS LEASES"

How do I find a number for Devon to find out a drilling schedule for the land they have leased.

I would go to their website and look for mineral owners contact.

Cecil,

You might try this link. It has all the contact numbers.

I have found that the operators do not give out the drilling schedules. My operator is XTO and the closest

I could get was "many, many months"
