34,200' in the Gulf of Mexico

it was called oil well in Texas
The reason that oil shale is not used to produce oil is because this is what keeps the oil well from collapsing after the oil is removed. If the oil shale were mined, the oil well would collapse into a large trench in the ground.
Yes, certainly. When the pressure at the bottom of oil well is too low, oil cannot flow up without help. Pressurized water or carbon dioxide can be forced into oil deposit from another drilled well to increase the pressure at the bottom of the original oil well.

The first commmercial oil well was in Pennsylvania.
The deepest oil well in Oklahoma is Rogers Well.
The deepest oil well in Montana is approximately 25,000 feet deep. This depth allows for drilling into multiple underground rock layers to access oil reserves.
Exxon Mobil drilled an oil well in Russia to a depth of 37,016 feet or over seven miles.
The deepest on land oil well is located in Russia, in the Kola Peninsula. The well, known as the Kola Superdeep Borehole, reached a depth of over 40,000 feet (12,000 meters) before it was ultimately closed in 2008.
Deepest vertical well = 35,050ftTVD and 35,055ftMD, operating in 4,130 feet of water. Longest extended reach well = 40,320ftMD with a 35,770ft horizontal section. Deepest working water depth = 10,011ft.
From deepest to shallowest: oil, water, then natural gas!
