Ken,

There are two ways that I know of whereby the general public can keep up with current drilling.

The first is Baker Hughes Rig Count Map which has the rig locations as of the previous Friday. It is free but it has very limited data now. It is not always up to date and it only shows the location and very general well info.

The other is to buy a subscription from Rig Data. They provide well API #, operator, driller, rig name/#, location, permitted depth, profile, spud date, days drilling and, sometimes, drilling dept. The subscriptions start at $35/mo., I think, and you will get a report every Friday.

I took a look at the Baker Hughes map.  Is there a way to determine section, township and range for the individual dots on the map?  There is an "objectID number" but this doesn't correlate to a well ID number on Sonris.

Baker Hughes doesn't tell you enough, anymore, to identify a particular well location.
