Summary

Description

The Permian Basin, a long time oil- and natural gas-producing region in West Texas and southeastern New Mexico, has seen a significant increase in horizontal oil-directed drilling activity. During this time, the number of horizontal, oil-directed rigs in the Permian Basin rose by 63 rigs, 50% of the total increase in the United States. This growth was heavily concentrated in counties in the Permian Basin containing formations with high production potential. <a href="http://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.cfm?id=16291" rel="nofollow">www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.cfm?id=16291</a>
