Louisiana SONRIS / DNR

Live

Louisiana SONRIS / DNR (now DCE) oil & gas — ~245K wells, 174 salt domes, ~11K fields, ~4.5K injection / storage / service wells.

What is Louisiana SONRIS / DNR?

Louisiana SONRIS / DNR (rebranded to DCE — Department of Conservation & Energy) public ArcGIS REST FeatureServer covering oil & gas. Filter ~245,450 wells by parish, operator, status (mapped via LEGEND_DES — the human-readable label, since WELL_STATU is opaque numeric codes like '03' or '29'), or product type (oil/gas/injection). Salt domes (174) are LA-specific — caverns, sour gas storage, SPR. Oil & gas fields (~11K polygons) carry FIELDNAME only — no parish or operator. Injection / storage / service wells (~4.5K) include type, status, operator. The legacy native sonris-www.dnr.state.la.us ArcGIS server is now 404 (LA rebranded DNR to DCE); the working data lives on AGOL mirrors. Parishes returned in Title Case (LA SALLE → La Salle). SONRIS production database is browser-session only — wells include `sonrisLink` for downstream UIs to deep-link.
