U.S. Well Data
Detailed Data for Evaluating Opportunities
When evaluating wells, you can never have too much information. For smart decision-making, you need a comprehensive understanding of a well's history, along with complete details on surrounding wells. Without accurate well data, you could make miscalculations of estimated ultimate recovery or drainage — leading to costly mistakes.
Boost your odds of success and reduce risk when evaluating new opportunities with IHS U.S. well data, the most complete, accurate well database in the industry. It covers nearly three million U.S. wells, representing virtually every well drilled and produced back
to 1859. And it contains as many as 1,000 data elements and narrative comments to back your E&P evaluations.
Data at the Depth You Need
IHS provides the depth, breadth and detail to bring confidence and validity to your evaluations:
- Current and historic well records that contain complete entity descriptions, such as lease, operator, field, reservoir, and API numbers linking well and production files.
- Complete downhole well figures, including drilling narratives, cores, logs, formation tops, casing data, perforation intervals, completion details, treatments, well tests and oil gravities that complement basic header data.
- Well files that track permits, drilling activity, and current and historic completion records that date back to the 1800s, including the Drake Well.
"On probably 90-95 percent of projects requiring publicly available data, I recommend that clients use IHS data. It's my first preference for well and production data."
— Jewel Wellborn, President - Hydrocarbon Exploration & Development

Data You Can Count On
IHS collects data from a combination of sources, including operator and rig partners, and its own network of worldwide scouts, resulting in data that goes well beyond just state data. Often, we capture data before it's even reported to the state, allowing us to deliver exceptionally current data to support your decisions.
Then we put data through an exhaustive editing and auditing process to verify its accuracy. We validate it against our own databases and compare it to information provided by our scouts and partners. Finally, we standardize names and API codes across regions and basins, consolidating well and production files.
Integrates with Applications for Rapid Analysis
IHS U.S. well data integrates seamlessly with a variety of engineering, economics and exploration applications, allowing you to easily use the data in your workflow and quickly evaluate potential acquisitions.
