Pennsylvania DEP Bureau of Oil & Gas Management. PA's quirk: O&G regulator lives under DEP. - searchWells (~25K Unconv + ~199K Conv) ⭐ filter county/operator/status/wellType/wellConfig/wellCategory - searchPermits ⭐ wells with PERMIT_DATE in window (default unconv, last 365d) - getWellByApi, searchOrphanedWells (~27K), searchViolationsAndComplaints, getServiceInfo upstream quirks: PA does NOT use 14-digit API — wells keyed by PERMIT_NUMBER like '003-22621'. WELL_STATUS: Active / Plugged OG Well / Operator Reported Not Drilled / DEP Orphan List. WELL_CONFIG: Vertical (199K conv) / Horizontal (23K unconv) / Deviated. DEP does NOT publish violations Feature Service — Complaints (~39K) used as proxy. Production NOT a Feature Service (XML only) — dropped.
