Statewide Production Data — Oil
Twenty-four months of oil production plus allowable.
What this is
PDA001. A rolling twenty-four month window of oil production and allowable across the state.
How it is laid out
The Railroad Commission publishes this as EBCDIC (IBM cp037). IBM mainframe encoding (cp037). Opening it as text gives you nonsense; it has to be transcoded first. 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
Take two years of oil production and allowable in one file, at the Commission's own reporting grain.
- 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
The window rolls; this is not a history.
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.
