- How fresh is it?
- Permits and new wells update nightly. Production follows the RRC's monthly cycle, about three months behind.
- Is this my production data?
- No, Recon shows what operators filed with the state. Your own gauges, tickets and meters live on the Dashboard and well pages.
- What do alerts cover?
- Permits filed, permits approved and new wells in the counties you pick, by email, daily or weekly. Alerts are in Beta.
