Newfield Drilling Seven New Wells in the SCOOP

Garvin County seems to be a new center of activity lately. A quick check of the Permits to Drill report on applications in Oklahoma reveals Houston-based Newfield Exploration Mid-Con, Inc. is drilling seven new wells in Garvin County, Oklahoma, according to the daily permits report for July 17, 2017.

The wells are within the Springer Fairway of Oklahoma’s prolific SCOOP play. All seven wells are in the same area about ten miles northwest of Elmore City located at 05 2N 3W and consecutively identified as N. Hays #2H-5X through N. Hays #8H-5X.

A mineral rights forum for Garvin County also reported that the Newfield wells are near their new office close to the intersection of Oklahoma Highways 29 and 76.
