Producing area
Eagle Ford
The Eagle Ford footprint produced 420.3 MMbbl of oil and 3.13 Tcf of natural gas in 2025; 29,474 rock-evidenced wells and 100,761 wells in the footprint. Data through 2026-04.
Production best estimate incl. allocated
Every barrel here traces to a volume the regulator published — 61.3% of it reported for the individual well.
Where the other 38.7% comes from
- 61.3% Reported by the regulator for this well and month
- 38.7% Reported by the regulator as a lease total, split across the lease's wells — the regional total shown is the reported number, to rounding
Every cubic foot here traces to a volume the regulator published — 87.5% of it reported for the individual well.
Where the other 12.5% comes from
- 87.5% Reported by the regulator for this well and month
- 12.5% Reported by the regulator as a lease total, split across the lease's wells — the regional total shown is the reported number, to rounding
Each band is the wells that first produced in that year, so the stack shows what is holding today's rate up and how much of it is new drilling. Every band is measured volume — no cohort is modelled.

Where the wells are
Key numbers
Source: CommoVision — Eagle Ford, data through April 2026.
Well counts are shown on two independent bases — rock-evidenced (a formation assignment backed by regulator-reported formation evidence) alongside the total footprint (every well inside the county-based definition). The two overlap heavily, but neither contains the other: rock evidence follows the formation wherever it was drilled, including outside the county lines. See the methodology for why we don’t infer play membership.
What the data shows
- The Eagle Ford footprint produced 420.3 MMbbl of oil and 3.13 Tcf of natural gas in 2025 (best estimate including allocated volumes).
- The Eagle Ford footprint oil production peaked in 2015 at 581.5 MMbbl; 2025 output of 420.3 MMbbl ran at 72% of that peak (best estimate including allocated volumes).
- 29,474 wells carry a rock-evidenced Eagle Ford formation assignment (a rock lens). The county footprint is a separate geographic lens holding 100,761 wells of all formations and trajectories; the two overlap heavily but neither contains the other.
