The Railroad Commission has
adopted a new statewide rule on
horizontal drilling to promote the
orderly development of oil and gas
reservoirs across Texas.
The new rule, which covers the
entire state, should speed the
permitting process for operators
seeking to drill new horizontal
drainhole wells. Previously opera-
tors had to petition the Commission
for modifications to the field rules
for each field in which they wanted
to drill a horizontal drainhole. The
rule also benefits mineral interest
owners by protecting their rights in
areas where horizontal drilling is
taking place.
Under the new rule, the amount of
oil each horizontal well is permitted
to produce is determined by a
formula that takes into account the
length of the horizontal portion of
the wellbore. Generally, the longer
the horizontal leg of the wellbore, the
more acreage the well can drain,
and the greater the amount of oil the
well can produce Individual wells
may be developed with more
than one horizontal drainhole
originating from a single vertical
wellbore.
The rule also prohibits the drilling
of a horizontal drainhole within 1,200
feet of any other well. No point on a
horizontal drainhole can be drilled

Horizontal drilling is a technique
used to tap oil reserves that can’t be
recovered profitably using standard
methods
Target reserves typically are
found in vertical fractures or
crevices in rock The pockets usually
are difficult to pinpoint and
penetrate using vertical wellbores.
In horizontal drilling, wells are
drilled vertically to a predetermined
depth. Then, the wellbore is turned
and bored horizontally up to several
thousand feet, intersecting several
fracture systems.
Currently, Texas leads the nation
in horizontal drilling activity,
accounting for roughly 75 percent of
the U.S. total. The Commission has
issued 413 horizontal drilling permits
to date, with 256 issued to operators
in the South Texas counties of Frio,
Zavala, Dimmitt and LaSalle, which
contain the Pearsall (Austin Chalk)
Field In addition, another 104
permits have been issued for
horizontal wells in the Giddings
(Austin Chalk) Field in Burleson,
Lee and Fayette counties
The statewide rule takes effect
June 1.
