Here is a data set of 795 wells drilled by EOG in the 27 months between January 2023 and March 2025 (Novi) in Lea and Eddy Counties.
You can track GOR during the time frame, and produced water of 675,034 BWPD, about 850 BWPD per well on gas lift, or ESP, I am sure. The fact that water continues to increase for the data set suggests as OWR decreases, total fluid production per day increases via AL to maximize oil volumes. You can be a assured that a large part of this produced water volume is sent to Texas for disposal.
FLOW Partners suggest EOG only has 4 years of remaining drilling inventory in these two counties. I bet less, by half.
In any case you can see why EOG is packing up its shit and moving to Ohio.
