Best Answer

The best produce more than 100,000 barrels per day (1 barrel=42 gallons). Most produce less than this, and can produce as little as 100 barrels per day. A "good" well comes down to economics. It should be making enough money to offset the time, effort, and energy costs to keep it running and be producing sufficently to warrent keeping the equipment dedicated to it. Otherwise the equipment should be moved to a more economically viable well which will yield a greater profit margin.

How many barrels does a Texas oil well produce?

I have provided an answer based on my assumption that you would like to know how much oil a well produces on a daily basis. It is very hard to generalize. Oil production is measured in barrels per day. A barrel is 42 gallons. Well production is highly variable and depends on many factors. There are many wells in the US producing less than 10 barrels of oil per day and are considered "stripper wells." The high side of oil production from a single wellbore can be as high as 10,000 barrels/day. The production normally declines as reservoir pressure declines. An increase in gas and/or water can result in declining production.

How many barrels a day can a horizontal oil well produce?

Unfortunately, there is not good answer. The flow into a horizontal well will depend on the formation and oil properties. This can be stated as transmissibility = Ko x h/ visc where Ko is the oil permeability, h is the formation thickness and visc is the oil viscosity. It can be more complicated than this, but the higher this transmissibility, the higher the initial flow rate. Of course, the extent of the horizontal well is also important, and artificial lift may be used to increase flow.
