2002 Kansas Oil & Gas Production by Operator |
Kansas Geological Survey Open-file Report 2002-53 |
Timothy R. Carr
Kansas Geological Survey
Open-File Report 2002-53
Summary
Attached are tables showing oil and gas production by operator for the state
fiscal year from July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002 (FY2002). Tables were
generated from relational databases maintained by the Kansas Geological Survey
using data supplied by the Kansas Department of Revenue. Given that productive
leases are continuously transferred between operators, production for individual
operators may not be current.
During FY2002, a total of 2,288 operators reported oil production of 33,585,682 barrels, which is down from the 34,273,223 barrels reported in FY2001 (Kansas open-File report 2001-32, http://www.kgs.ku.edu/PRS/publication/2001/ofr2001-32/). The top 20 operators produced 2,175,210 barrels of oil, and accounted for 36.25% of total production (Table 1). A complete listing of oil production for all operators is provided in Appendix 1.
Gas production during FY2002 was reported by 989 operators and totaled 472 billion cubic feet (bcf), which is down from the 494 bcf reported in FY2001 (Kansas open-File report 2001-32, http://www.kgs.ku.edu/PRS/publication/2001/ofr2001-32/). The top 20 operators produced 387 bcf of gas, and accounted for 81.8% of total production (Table 2). A complete listing of all operators is provided in Appendix 2.

Note: Gas production for the top 20 operators in FY2001 is misstated in Open-File Report 2001-32. Production should be 407bcf instead of 207bcf.
