Permian Basin — 20,417 wells tracked on MineralSearch
Howard County sits on the eastern shelf of the Midland Basin and has been a cornerstone of Permian Basin production since the 1920s. Big Spring, the county seat, has long been an oil town. The county's stacked pay potential — from the shallow San Andres to the deeper Wolfcamp — makes it attractive for both conventional and unconventional operators. SM Energy and Diamondback have been among the most active drillers in recent years.
