All 77 counties in Oklahoma have had oil wells drilled in them.
The number of wells drilled can vary each year based on industry demand and exploration efforts. In 2020, there were approximately 12,758 oil and gas wells drilled in the United States alone.
This question is impossible to answer, as wells are being drilled continuously.
Dug wells are excavated by hand or machine, typically dug into the ground to access groundwater. Drilled wells are created using specialized equipment to bore deep into the ground to access groundwater. Drilled wells are typically deeper and can access water from greater depths compared to dug wells.
Depends...First all oil wells are rated in barrels (42 gal).Some wells can produce hundreds of barrels of fluid per day. Some wells produce only one or less than 1 barrel of fluid per day.The fluid they produce can also vary in the amount of oil they produce, some wells might produce a lot of fluid but its only 5% oil where the rest is salt water. While other wells produce pure oil and all in between. Some wells even actually inject fluids back down into the geological formation. Not every well you see is a producer.You might have two wells 50' apart and they produce completely different amounts of oil. It all depends on the geology down where they drilled and luck since you really never know what is down there until you drill the hole.

On average, around 50,000 oil wells are drilled globally each year. This number can vary depending on market conditions and oil demand.
The first oil well was drilled by Edwin Drake in Titusville, Pennsylvania. At a depth of only 69 feet (21 meters), Drake struck oil, and his well began to produce about thirty barrels of oil a day. In the years that followed, hundreds of wells were drilled in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, and Indiana.
Kenya has over 56,000 drilled boreholes.

Oil explorers drilled Alaska's first oil well in 1896 on the shores of Cook Inlet, southwest of present-day Anchorage. They found modest amounts of oil, insufficient to justify development. Six years later, however, a well drilled at Katalla on the Gulf of Alaska struck oil. More wells were drilled at Katalla and eventually a refinery was built.
