Kansas 2018 O&G production figures are in. Crude production dropped to the lowest level since 2005, 34.7 million barrels. Ellis County remains the top county for crude production with 2.6 million barrels. In Southeast Kansas, Woodson County took the top spot with over 500k barrels, followed by Greenwood with 355k. Allen had 239k, Wilson 96k, Neosho 30k.
Natural gas production also dropped to the lowest level in 18 years, and quite likely much longer, 27,200,639 mcf. Stevens County leads the state in gas production. In Southeast Kansas, Neosho County edged over Wilson County with 5,755,673 mcf.
