A-26, JOHNSON, A E C Survey, Sabine County, Texas
Abstract 26 in the Original Land Survey grid. This is the description a mineral deed uses for land in this county.
The Commission files 2 different spellings of this survey’s name across the polygons that make up the abstract. The first is shown above. The abstract number is the key; the name is not.
On the ground
The abstract as the Commission draws it, on satellite imagery. The faint outlines are the neighbouring abstracts in Sabine County; click one to open it.
A pin outside the outline is normal. The Commission files the coordinate of the well’s bottom hole and the abstract of the tract where it was permitted. A horizontal well enters the ground in one survey and bottoms in the next, so about one well in five sits outside the shape it belongs to. A horizontal well’s bottom hole sits a median 2,780 m from its abstract against 877 m for a vertical one, which is a lateral’s length. The Commission also states that its coordinates are interpreted from survey boundaries and are not necessarily true geographic locations.

2 of 3 leases are not linked. Texas files 516,445 leases and gives a page only to the 327,776 that ever reported a volume, so a lease can be named on a well and have no record to open. The well IS on that lease either way. The operator is linked from the lease, so a well without a lease page carries no operator link either.
