What this is

The P-18 report: hydrocarbon liquids recovered at gas processing plants and saltwater disposal facilities, which never appear as lease production because they were skimmed downstream.

Unusually for RRC, it is published as JSON on the Commission's website rather than through the MFT portal.

How it is laid out

The Railroad Commission publishes this as JSON. Structured JSON. We mirror the Commission's file exactly as they published it, byte for byte. We have not decoded this one into a table yet, so reading it needs the right tooling.

What we add

Account for liquids that production data does not capture, and see which plants and disposal facilities recover them.

  • Mirrored so the file is here when the Commission's own link is not.
  • Documented — what it is, where it came from, and when we last fetched it.

Worth knowing before you use it

Skim oil is recovered volume, not produced volume. Adding it to lease production double counts.

EZRRC does not parse this file. Upstream has not built a reader for it yet, so the catalog documents it and links to the Commission's own copy rather than pretending to serve rows it does not have.

The full page lists every trap in this dataset.

Get it

We have no copy of this one to give you yet — the Commission publishes it somewhere we cannot mirror byte for byte, or has stopped publishing it. The full page says which, and links to the Commission’s own copy where there is one.
