The top 20 oil and gas operators in Garfield County, Oklahoma, ranked by monthly oil production. Combined output of all 25 reporting operators: 90,685 BBL oil and 1,530,186 Mcf gas across 541 reporting wells/leases.
Momentum blends the year-over-year change in average monthly production (oil + gas at 6 Mcf per BOE, 2025-09 – 2026-02 vs the same months a year earlier, complete reporting months only) with the change in drilling permits (last 12 months vs the prior 12: 7 vs 2). Each input is capped at ±100%.
Benchmark gross value of production: about $8.7M per month — 58,019 bbl of oil and 1,183,091 Mcf of gas a month, priced at the EIA average WTI ($61.19/bbl) and Henry Hub ($4.22/MMBtu) spot prices over the same months.
Benchmark prices before quality and location differentials, transport, taxes and costs; this is a county-level economic indicator, not the value of any mineral or royalty interest.
