Regarding dates of Zion oil sat photos:

I once had an opportunity to buy a book's plates. The plates were of older versions of a research bible that was originally published back in the 19th century. The creator of the new version who was trying to sell this to me told me about how you go about getting new copyrights on older docs. Long story short, the "trick" is to modify multiple spots in the previously copyrighted data where what you do is copyright specific changes but you get to generally declare copyright rights without having to specifically tell anyone where the exact new copyrighted data resides in the documents covered by the copyrights.

Transport this info to the current matter of the dates of Google copyrights of the sat photos.... Think for a moment about the perpetually updating process Google has itself involved in as it keeps its sat maps current. They absolutely have no choice but to cover the overall data sets of which the sat maps consist with general copyrights because, otherwise, they would be deluging users with unlimited notices on each and every change that they necessarily have to be making as the essence of their ongoing map services.

As a practical matter, then, it follows that the latest dates we see being discussed here are not dates referencing specific pages of data. There is, intentionally, no 1 to1 relationship. Simple as that.

The reality has to be that the maps we have were old photos and the new dates on the current copyright notices on Google maps cover the entirety of the maps in an umbrella fashion.

This thus explains the inability to clearly ID the well site. The photos pre-date the drill work. Simple as that.

Hope this helps.
