What is a Scout Ticket?

A scout ticket gives you the basic information about a well in a condensed format. WellDatabase scout tickets have been used in a number of applications over the years.

Most of the info is pretty straightforward. State, county, current operator, and full well name on the top left. Well type, status, & API on the top right with the field name directly below. The location data will have information as related to how the particular state tracks wells. All will have lat/long, but some states will have section, township, & range while TX will have abstract, survey, section & block.

The link at the bottom of the ticket will take you directly to the well details for that well when used in a PDF.
