What this is

Record type 07. The production tubing in a wellbore: size as whole inches plus a fraction, the depth it is set to and where the packer sits.

What you can do with it

Establish the completion configuration of a well, and check that a packer is set above a perforated interval as an injection permit requires.

Gotchas

Tubing size uses the same whole-plus-fraction encoding as casing: 2 7/8 inch is 2, 7 and 8 across three columns.

Record layout

9 columns. Byte positions are 1-based and come from the RRC record layout, so you can check our decoding against the original file yourself.

wb_tubing 9 columns

# Column Type Bytes RRC name Meaning Lookup
1 api_county key join text The three-digit county component of the API number. For offshore wells this is the nearest onshore county, not the well's actual location.
2 api_unique key join text The five-digit well component of the API number. Unique only in combination with the county code.
3 segment_counter key smallint 3-5 WB-SEGMENT-COUNTER Sequence of this tubing string within the bore.
4 tubing_inches integer 6-7 WB-TUBING-INCHES Tubing diameter, whole inches.
5 tubing_frac_num integer 8-9 WB-TUBING-FRAC-NUM Numerator of the fractional part of the tubing diameter.
6 tubing_frac_denom integer 10-11 WB-TUBING-FRAC-DENOM Denominator of the fractional part of the tubing diameter.
7 depth_set integer measured in ft 12-16 WB-DEPTH-SET Depth the tubing was set to, feet.
8 packer_set integer measured in ft 17-21 WB-PACKER-SET Depth the packer was set to, feet.
9 ingested_at timestamptz When the upstream pipeline last wrote this row. Not an RRC field — it is EZRRC's provenance stamp, and it is what the freshness badge is measured against.

What this joins to

The Railroad Commission never states these keys anywhere in the files. They are the reason the data is hard to use, so here they are with the exact columns on both sides.

Wellbore Tubing Records joins to Full Wellbore Database (ASCII) on API county and API unique — many rows here share a single row there.

its tubing strings

One row per tubing string, with the packer depth. Keyed on the API county and unique number, which is how every record type in WBA091 hangs off its root record.

full-wellbore-ascii.api_county = wellbore-tubing.api_county AND full-wellbore-ascii.api_unique = wellbore-tubing.api_unique
