Description
Abstract
The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) DIR_BHLS shapefile contains more than 16,000 bottomhole locations of oil and gas wells that have been, or are proposed to be, drilled directionally from a surface location.  Vertically drilled wells are not represented in this data set.

Each bottomhole point represents the approximate mapped location of the terminus of a directionally drilled wellbore.  This includes deviated and horizontal wellbores.  Well API Numbers, and other header information are provided as attributes.  Users should also download the companion WELLS and DIRLINES shapefiles for the purpose of connecting well surface locations to bottomhole locations on a map.

The COGCC is the official repository for Colorado's oil and gas information.

Purpose
To allow interested parties to map and visualize Colorado's directionally drilled wells.
