Inclusion

A washout is generally any enlargement or hole formed in an oil well after the hole has been drilled.^[1]^[2]

This information was removed for the washout (disambiguation) page. Perhaps it could be worked into this article. France3470 16:32, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A washout can also refer to a hole eroded in drilling tubulars by an erosive leak. Tommfuller (talk) 13:12, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Oil Well?

Much of the material here is also covered in Oil Well, I suggest the two be merged. Tommfuller (talk) 13:12, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Add A Fact: "Western Canada drilling to hit 10-year high"

I found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below

CAOEC expects a total of 6,604 wells to be drilled in Western Canada in 2025. That represents a 7.3 per cent increase from 2024 and would be the most activity in the Western Canadian oilpatch since the commodity price crash of 2014-15, which led to years of industry contraction.

The fact comes from the following source:

Stephenson, Amanda (2024-11-30). "Oil and gas drilling projected to reach 10-year high but Trump tariffs pose threat". CBC News. Retrieved 2024-12-03.
