Midland County domestic well depths

What 8,219 positive-depth domestic records show

Midland County records include 8,221 domestic-use reports. Of those, 8,219 include a positive borehole depth. The middle half runs from 80 to 125 feet, with a 100-foot median; P10 is 70 feet and P90 is 150 feet. The median domestic completion year is 2014.

Population estimates rose from 170,725 in 2020 to 183,587 in 2024—an increase of 12,862 residents, or 7.53%. Parcel change can tighten access, alter utilities and drainage, and make well placement coordination with power, septic, structures, trenching, storage, and future site work more important.

County records help frame the questions; the drilling quote is built from the property location, access, demand, and complete-system scope.

Plain answer: Midland County’s domestic record distribution is relatively shallow, but the property—not the county median—controls the scope.

Data sources: Texas Water Development Board and U.S. Census Bureau.

Keep record purposes separate

Midland County’s well file includes several very different work categories

Domestic records belong in the household planning lane. Rig-supply, fracking-supply, monitoring, environmental, and irrigation records describe different purposes and should not be converted into household expectations.

8,221

Domestic records

8,219 positive depths; 100-foot median and an 80–125-foot middle band.

1,554

Rig-supply records

Median 130 feet; an industrial supply category.

1,451

Irrigation records

Median 110 feet; a separate demand and equipment profile.

336

Fracking-supply records

Median 244 feet; a fracking-supply category.

2,176

Monitoring records

Median 44.5 feet and a purpose distinct from domestic supply.

951

Environmental soil-boring records

Median 15 feet; an environmental investigation category.

What shapes a drilling estimate

The complete Midland County job is more than drilling footage

Open land still needs deliberate access and staging: road base, gate width, turning geometry, overhead clearance, caliche-pad stability, utilities, power, septic, drainage, and future construction all belong in the plan.

01

Access and staging

All-weather road condition, gate width, turning room, overhead lines, and a firm level pad for the drill truck and support vehicle.

02

Demand and storage

Household use, livestock, irrigation, fire reserve, storage, treatment, and peak daily needs.

03

Pump, power, and pressure

Pump selection, anticipated lift and drawdown, electrical service, controls, pressure equipment, line runs, and trenching.

04

Finished system

Mobilization, drilling, casing, completion materials, testing, pump and controls, storage or treatment, startup, and cleanup.

Build the estimate around what the Midland County property actually needs.

Send the exact location, intended water use, access constraints, power and utility context, and known parcel plans.

A complete Midland County budget may include mobilization, stable-pad setup, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, trenching, electrical work, storage, testing, treatment, startup, and cleanup. The Texas water well drilling cost guide explains the major categories behind a headline estimate.

The county reference set includes 766 records: 387 Edwards-Trinity Plateau, 275 Ogallala, and 71 unassigned. Provide the property location so the review can focus on the most relevant nearby records.

The Texas Water Development Board groundwater records list all 766 entries under “GCD Does Not Exist.” Confirm current requirements for the exact parcel before drilling.

Property-specific well research

Pre-Drill Intelligence Report

$199 one-time report

The county information on this page shows broad patterns. The paid report narrows the research to one Midland County property before you compare drilling quotes or choose the next step for your land.

  • Nearby recorded wells and reported depths
  • Property access and site-planning questions
  • Questions to ask before drilling begins
  • A clearer picture of the complete water system

Understand the ground before you drill. Property conditions can change across the county. A property-specific review brings nearby well records, location, intended use, access, and complete-system questions together before you request a drilling quote.

A clearer path to a quote

From exact property details to a drilling conversation

1

Tell us about the property

Share the address or coordinates, intended use, access and staging, utilities, power, structures, septic context, and known site plans.

2

We review the project

TurnKey Wells screens the request, clarifies the scope, and identifies missing details that affect mobilization or the finished system.

3

Plan the drilling work

Compare a drilling quote on defined scope rather than treating a county median as a property promise.

Midland County records include 8,219 positive domestic borehole-depth entries with a 100-foot median, an 80-to-125-foot middle band, P10 at 70 feet, and P90 at 150 feet.

Why separate Midland County records by use?

The file includes domestic, rig-supply, fracking-supply, monitoring, irrigation, environmental soil-boring, and other filings. The categories are reviewed separately so the household distribution stays clear.

Why is the exact property location important?

The address or coordinates help focus nearby-record comparisons and define access, demand, power, storage, treatment, and complete-system scope for the review.

What access details help start a Midland County review?

Provide the exact address or coordinates, road and gate widths, surface and all-weather condition, turning and staging room, overhead lines, utilities, power, septic components, planned structures, and drainage constraints.

What should a complete drilling quote include?

Compare mobilization, stable-pad setup, drilling, casing, completion materials, pump and controls, pressure equipment, electrical and trenching work, testing, treatment or storage where needed, startup, and cleanup.
