Well Inventory data from Cleveland County, Oklahoma. Sourced from Cleveland Land Office.
Seven raster surfaces generated from wellbore information that are thought to influence fluid and or gas migration in the subsurface. Wellbore information was originally retrieved from the IHS Energy Group (current as of April 2015), which is a proprietary, commercial database containing information for most oil and gas wells in the U.S. Processing of wellbore information into gridded cells was performed to provide a graphic solution to overcome the problem of displaying proprietary well data. No proprietary data are displayed or included in the cell maps. These rasters were developed to serve as inputs to the SIMPA (Spatially Weighted Multivariate Probabilistic Assessment) tool. Each raster surface is a derivative product of wellbore dataset. Each raster represents a single wellbore attribute or combination of attributes that speak to the following wellbore characteristics: number of recompletions, year spud, year abandoned, year completed, number of abandoned wells, hole direction, switch from production to injection. The original wellbore information, retrieved from the IHS Energy Group, are in the form of points – these derivative rasters aggregate point attributes to approximately 1,000-meter resolution grid cells. Each raster only includes cells that contain wellbores with the characteristics represented in each surface (i.e. if the wellbores in a given cell have no year abandoned data, the cell is not included in the raster). Since the raster cells combine data from multiple points in many cases, methods such as the average, minimum, and count are used to summarize the information in each cell. The specific operations used to develop each raster are detailed in its metadata.
This data set consists of digitized water-level elevation contours for the Central Oklahoma aquifer in central Oklahoma. This area encompasses all or part of Cleveland, Lincoln, Logan, Oklahoma, Payne, and Pottawatomie Counties. The Central Oklahoma aquifer includes the alluvial and terrace deposits along major streams, the Garber Sandstone and Wellington Formations, and the Chase, Council Grove, and Admire Groups. The Quaternary-age alluvial and terrace deposits consist of unconsolidated clay, silt, sand, and gravel. The Permian-age Garber Sandstone and Wellington Formations consist of sandstone with interbedded siltstone and mudstone. The Permian-age Chase, Council Grove, and Admire Groups consist of sandstone, shale, and thin limestone. The Central Oklahoma aquifer underlies about 3,000 square miles of central Oklahoma where the aquifer is used extensively for municipal, industrial, commercial, and domestic water supplies. Most of the usable ground water within the aquifer is from the Garber Sandstone and Wellington Formations. Substantial quantities of usable ground water also are present in the Chase, Council Grove, and Admire Groups, and in alluvial and terrace deposits associated with the major streams. The water-level elevation map was created from digital data sets developed to produce a map for a previously published report. Water-levels measured in wells during the winter of 1986 and 1987 were used to construct the map. The digital data set contains water-level elevations that range from 850 to 1,350 feet above sea level or the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29).

This data set consists of digitized water-level elevation contours for the Rush Springs aquifer in western Oklahoma. This area encompasses all or part of Blaine, Caddo, Canadian, Comanche, Custer, Dewey, Grady, Stephens, and Washita Counties. The water-level elevation data set was created to be used as input into a computer model to simulate the ground-water flow in the Rush Springs aquifer. In the ground-water flow model, Mark F. Becker (U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 1997) defined the Rush Springs aquifer to include the Rush Springs Formation, alluvial and terrace deposits along major streams, and parts of the Marlow Formations, particularly in the eastern part of the aquifer boundary area. The Permian-age Rush Springs Formation consists of highly cross-bedded sandstone with some interbedded dolomite and gypsum. The Rush Springs Formation is overlain by Quaternary-age alluvial and terrace deposits that consist of unconsolidated clay, silt, sand, and gravel. The Rush Springs Formation is underlain by the Permian-age Marlow Formation that consists of interbedded sandstones, siltstones, mudstones, gypsum-anhydrite, and dolomite beds. The parts of the Marlow Formation that have high permeability and porosity are where the Marlow Formation is included as part of the Rush Springs aquifer (Mark F. Becker, written commun., 1997). The Rush Springs aquifer underlies about 2,400 square miles of western Oklahoma and is an important source of water for irrigation, livestock, industrial, municipal, and domestic use. Irrigation wells are reported to have well yields greater than 1,000 gallons per minute (Mark F. Becker, written commun., 1997). The water-level elevation data set was prepared at a scale of 1:250,000 by Mark F. Becker (written commun., 1997) from water levels measured in wells prior to the year 1950 that represented "pre-development" water-level conditions. Pre-development is a term used to indicate a time before many irrigation wells were constructed in the Rush Springs aquifer. The digital data set contains water-level elevations that range from 1,200 to 1,850 feet above sea level or the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29) (Mark F. Becker, written commun., 1997).

Geospatial data about Cleveland County, Oklahoma Well Inventory. Export to CAD, GIS, PDF, CSV and access via API.
This archive contains the data used to (1) summarize the hydrogeology and update the hydrogeologic framework of the Antlers aquifer in southeastern Oklahoma, and (2) develop a conceptual groundwater-flow model and water budget to estimate recharge to the Antlers aquifer during 1980–2022 as part of a hydrologic investigation (the model documentation report is available at https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20255013). The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB), constructed a soil-water-balance (SWB) model of the Antlers aquifer in southeastern Oklahoma. The soil-water balance (SWB) model was used to simulate groundwater flow and estimate recharge to the Antlers aquifer. The input data and resulting output recharge data files are contained herein. Input data for the SWB model are precipitation, air temperature, soil-water storage capacity, hydrologic soil group, surface-water flow direction, and land-cover type. Data used in a multiple well aquifer pumping test, slug tests, groundwater-quality analysis, base-flow index estimation, and an analysis of groundwater use in the Antlers aquifer are provided. All associated data files are included in the ancillary folder of this data release.
This data set consists of digitized water-level elevation contours for the Antlers aquifer in southeastern Oklahoma. The Early Cretaceous-age Antlers Sandstone is an important source of water in an area that underlies about 4,400-square miles of all or part of Atoka, Bryan, Carter, Choctaw, Johnston, Love, Marshall, McCurtain, and Pushmataha Counties. The Antlers aquifer consists of sand, clay, conglomerate, and limestone in the outcrop area. The upper part of the Antlers aquifer consists of beds of sand, poorly cemented sandstone, sandy shale, silt, and clay. The Antlers aquifer is unconfined where it outcrops in about an 1,800-square-mile area. The water-level elevation contours were digitized from a mylar map at a scale of 1:250,000 that was used to prepare a final map published at a scale of 1:500,000 in a ground-water modeling report. Water levels measured in wells in 1970 were used to construct the map. The water-level elevation contours for the Antlers aquifer in Texas are not included in this data set. The digital data set contains water-level elevations that range from 300 feet (in the east) to 900 feet (in the west) above sea level or the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929.
