Quick answer: Big Lake Corporation has 11 Texas/Oklahoma drilling permits in the last ten years, 1 of them in the last 12 complete months (— year over year). Its most-permitted county is Victoria (63.6% of permits) and leading target is Gulf Coast Basin (La - Tx) (100%).
| Year | Permits | Median lateral (ft) |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 3 | 117 |
| Other years combined (5 years) | 8 | — |
Years with fewer than three permits are combined with at least one other year, so no single year's count is published.
| Formation / play | Permits | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Gulf Coast Basin (La - Tx) | 10 | 100% |
| Median permit → spud | 31 days |
| Median spud → first reported production | 54 days |
| Permits older than 12 months that were spudded | 90% |
| Spuds older than 12 months reporting production | 80% |
| Median lateral, last 24 months vs earlier | — ft vs 409 ft |
Groups with fewer than three permits are folded into "all other". Computed by Valor from public oil and gas data; refreshed weekly. Data as of 2026-10-18.
Big Lake Corporation has 11 Texas/Oklahoma drilling permits in the last ten years, 1 of them in the last 12 complete months (— year over year). Its most-permitted county is Victoria (63.6% of permits) and leading target is Gulf Coast Basin (La - Tx) (100%).

There are not enough permits with a recorded lateral length to compute a trend.
No. Valor publishes permit activity as statistics — counts by year, county and formation groupings of three or more permits, lateral trends and cycle times — rather than individual permit records.
