RRC ruling barely shifts city oil output in 1975 order
The Texas Railroad Commission issued a Maximum Reservoir Liquid Displacement Order dated January 27 1975 effective April 1 that sets a water to oil ratio of 15 to 1 for East Texas wells. City officials learned the rule largely reiterates a 1942 order and affects only wells producing more than 300 barrels of salt water daily. About 620 wells exceed 300 barrels of water on the field but only 180000 barrels of salt water are produced daily. no wells will be shut in and overall field value remains unchanged.

HB 408 and SB 30 are slated for Feb. 12 and 2015 discussions, with Finney claiming broad support and urgency amid rising secondary recovery projections.
