Oklahoma continues dry spell of completed oil and gas wells

The first two weeks of October produced a dramatic plunge in the number of completed oil and gas wells in Oklahoma, going from a high 29 completion reports on October 2 to none over a four-day stretch.

So far this week, only three completion reports were filed and they were in Canadian, Hughes and Kingfisher counties. The largest well had production of 308 barrels of oil a day.

The four previous days of reports saw no completions while a week ago, two reports were filed.

Oklahoma started the month with 15 completions on the first day, 29 on the second and 17 reports on October 3 before dropping to five reports on the 4th and two on the 7th.
