Go the Texas Railroad Commission of Texas who regulates the Oil & Gas industry here in Texas’
http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/interactive_data.html
Go to the bottom of the page& click on the last line
Public GIS map viewer for oil, gas, and pipeline data

Click on the link under accessing the public GIS map viewer
Scroll to the bottom of page and click on “accept button”

At right bottom of new window click on Survey/Abstract button.

New window pops up
(Note, if you have a pop up blocker you will need to hold the ctr key when clicking on links, many times from here on in and you may want to close after each use.)

Select Bastrop County in the dropdown. Under Abstract A fill in with 190 then click search.
Then click on MAP you can now close the survey search window because you will be opening many later

Now you can see the J Holderman survey and the wells located within it. See the blue icons. Now click on the LEGEND button on the right and it will tell you the status of each icon.

10 dry holes and 1 plugged oil well, nothing else!

Now on the right of the Map Viewer see the CLICK MAP TO: (select one) drop down, change to Identify wells.

Now move your pointer over any well on the screen and click on a well and a new window will open, this window will link to additional info specific to the well

Click on Operator/Wellbore/PDQ. You will see the API#, last permitted operator, last permitted lease name, plugging information.

Go back to GIS Wellbore Attributes and click on Drilling Permits.
Now click on name under lease name, this will show you the completion information, how deep the well was drilled, what type well, oil or gas & number of acres in lease.

Go back to map & click on any well and see the status. Play with it, lots of info available.

The J. Holderman Survey has had no productive wells. The plugged oil well was dry and was re-drilled and came up dry again.

But, if you move to the east about 2.5 miles east of FM 2104 you will see thousands of productive wells.

I see it underground this way. It is like you are standing on dry land (holderman survey) walking up to a lake (area east of FM 2104)
