About
Free, plain-English explainers of how an oil well is built, run and retired. Educational only — not a substitute for site-specific training or your company's procedures.
The example well is an onshore horizontal well in North Dakota's Williston Basin. Regulatory references are examples only; rules vary by state, and federal and tribal land have their own processes. Numbers are typical, not universal, and illustrations are not to scale.
