Search results

Type in the search box and press Enter. The data tables open on a Search tab named after your words, such as “chisholm”. It lists every lease, well, field and operator your words found, and marks the best match. You need a free account to see search results. See Plans & access. The Search tab has its own filters and sort, so your Wells and Leases tabs and their filters stay as they were. It stays on the tab strip while the search is on. Clearing the search removes it, and it isn’t kept for your next visit.

​

The heading

• The count: 128 results for “chisholm”, or 40 leases for “chisholm” on a type tab. A + after the number means there were too many wells to count.
• Where it searches: Searching Statewide. Click Statewide to search only the part of the map you can see now; the line then reads Searching the map area, and clicking the map area searches all of Texas again. A county, a circle or an area you drew is named instead, such as Searching Dickens County.
• The best match: Best match, then the mark and name of the record QuickScout thinks you were after, such as a producing operator whose name starts with your words, or the busiest producing lease on screen. Click its name to open it the way its row does. Its row in the list says Best match too.

​

Type tabs

Under the heading: All, Leases, Wells, Fields and Operators, each with how many it holds. A tab with nothing in it is greyed out.

​

All

Four sections, in the same order as the search panel: Leases, Wells, Fields and Operators. Each lists its first few results, the ones named for your words first. See all and the section’s count, such as See all 115, opens that type’s tab. Big counts are explained under the rows. A search for chisholm may find 115 leases of which only 24 are called Chisholm; the line under them then reads 91 leases run by the operators below. Click the line to open the Leases tab at those 91. Other lines say … in the fields below, … in the fields or run by the operators below, … that match on another column, and under Fields, … fields of the leases above.

​

Leases and Wells

Each lists everything All counted for it, in two lists:

• Named “‹words›”: the ones whose own name has your words.
• Not named “‹words›”: the ones that matched another way. A line under the heading says how, such as Matched on their operator., Matched on their field. or Matched on another detail (county or number).

Each list shows 25 at a time. Show 25 more adds the next 25. On the Wells tab, wells you’ve corrected or added in My Wells come first, under Your wells.

​

Fields and Operators

• Fields lists every field holding a lease your words matched. Fields named for your words come first; the rest follow under Not named “‹words›”, with a line such as Matched on their leases’ operators. Each field says how many of its leases matched, such as 8 of 15 leases.
• Operators lists the operators whose names have your words.

​

What a row shows

• The record’s mark, the same symbol it has on the map, then its name. The best match says Best match after its name, and a record in your compare tray says In compare.
• Under the name, where it is and who runs it: the part of its county and its operator (NE Schleicher · …). Fields and operators show their leases (61 leases).
• On the right, what it makes today in boe/d (oil plus gas, 6 mcf to the barrel), or its status, such as Not producing. On the Wells tab, a producing well shows its lease’s rate, because Texas reports production by lease; elsewhere a well shows its status, such as Producing.
• How far it is from the middle of your view, and which way, such as 4 mi NE. The distance is highlighted when the record is on screen, and updates as you move the map.

When the list is wide, for example after Full screen, the rows line up in columns with headings: the name (Name on All, or the kind, such as Lease), County, Daily boe (Lease boe/d on Wells), Cum boe (on Wells), Distance, and on a wider list the RRC number (RRC No. on All, or Lease No., API, P-5 No. or Field No.). Click the name, Daily boe, Cum boe or Distance heading to sort by it, and again to reverse the order.

​

Open, drill down and go back

• Click a well to open its card.
• Click an operator, field or lease to drill down into what it holds: an operator’s leases, wells and fields; a field’s leases, wells and operators; a lease’s wells. The type tabs change to the kinds it holds.
• To open its card instead, hover the row and click Open operator, Open field or Open lease at its right end, or hold ⇧ and click the row.

At a drill level, the top of the tab shows the way back: your words, then each level you came through, such as ← “chisholm” › CHISHOLM OPERATING. Click your words or a level to go back up, or press Backspace or Alt + ←. Open operator (or Open field, Open lease) beside the name opens its card. Rows also work from the keyboard. Reach one with Tab, then Enter does what a click does, ⇧ Enter opens its card, and c adds it to compare or takes it out.

​

Narrow the results

Click Filters, under the type tabs. Each tab has its own:

• Tick a value to keep only those results. Each value says how many results it would leave. Ticking two values in one filter keeps either one; ticks in different filters narrow each other.
• A long list shows its top five; Show all and its count lists the rest. The box at the top, such as Find a county, operator or field…, finds a value in every filter at once.
• Status is Producing or Not producing. Daily boe comes in bands from 1,000+ boe/d down to Under 10 boe/d and No current rate.
• Last produced (Wells) has a bar for each year. Click a bar, or drag across several for a range.
• Area is one of Statewide, In current map view, Within 50 mi of map center, Within 100 mi of map center and An area you draw on the map. A map view or circle is fixed when you pick it; moving the map afterwards doesn’t change it.

What you’ve picked shows as chips under the buttons, such as Irion Co., Producing or Map area. Each chip’s × removes it, and Clear all removes them all. A pick that doesn’t apply to the tab you’re on stays as a faded chip that says where it does, such as · wells only. On a narrow panel the filters open over the results. To get back to the list, click the button at the bottom, such as Show 166 leases, or Close at the top. On a wide panel they stand beside the results instead; click Filters again to put them away.

​

Draw an area

Choose An area you draw on the map under Area. Click the map to place each corner, then double-click to finish. While you draw, clicking the map doesn’t open wells; Esc gives up. The results narrow to the area. A dashed violet outline marks it on the map, its chip reads Drawn area, and the heading says Searching the area you drew. Click the chip’s × to remove it. The outline narrows only this search. To gather everything inside an area of the map on one card, use Select an area instead.

​

Sort

Click Sort. The button says the order in force, such as Sort: Best match. On a type tab, any order but Best match makes one ranked list, with a line over it saying what it is, such as 228 leases · highest daily boe first. A line under that says how many are named for your words and how the rest matched. On All, each section lists its first few in that order.

​

On the map

The matches are always drawn in violet on the map; see While a search is on. The Search tab adds two buttons at the right end of its toolbar:

• Only these on map hides every other well, so only the search’s wells are drawn. Click it again to bring the other wells back. It works for up to 30,000 wells; narrow a bigger search first. When a search is too broad to mark on the map at all, the button’s place reads Too many to mark on the map.
• Zoom to all moves the map to take in every match.

On a narrow panel the toolbar wraps onto a second line, so both buttons are still there. Filters, sorting and drilling down never move the map. Zoom to all is the only button here that does.

​

The map and the list point to each other

• Hover a row, or reach it with Tab, and its record lights up on the map. A lease’s outline and wells, or a well’s path, light in amber with a pin; an operator’s or field’s own wells light among the matches.
• When a lease or well is out of sight, a chip at the edge of the map points to it, with its name and how far away it is. Click the chip to go there.
• Open a record’s card from the map, and its row lights up in the list and scrolls into view.

​

Add to compare

Hover a row and click Compare at its right end, or press c on a row you’ve reached with Tab. The row then says In compare, and Compare stays pressed. Click it again, or press c, to take the record out. See Compare.

​

While map data downloads

The search reads map data kept on this device. Until that has downloaded, you still get results, read over your connection. Only these on map waits for the download, and a note under the list says The map can show only these once its data has loaded. The count in the search box, such as 57 of 829 on screen, arrives once the download finishes too. If you have wells of your own in My Wells, the note may say Your wells are not searched until the map’s data has loaded. instead. If the results can’t be read at all, the tab shows one note, The search is waiting for its files., with the reason and what to do: Download now, Try again, or Map data…. When the QuickScout server isn’t answering, the note says so instead. See Map data on this device.
