How many wells are on record in Mercer County, North Dakota?

ND DWR holds 1,310 driller's logs for Mercer County, the earliest from the 1960s and the most recent from the 2020s. 114 of them were drilled since 2016. Each log is a filed document — the depth, the formations and the water the driller found are written on it.

How deep are wells in Mercer County?

North Dakota does not publish drilled depth as data — ND DWR's well file has no depth column. The depth of each well is written on the driller's own log, which ND DWR scans and publishes per well. Pull the wells near an address and open their logs to read the depths the drillers actually recorded on this ground.

How much does it cost to drill a well in Mercer County?

We don't publish a Mercer County cost estimate, because the honest input isn't there: cost tracks depth, and North Dakota doesn't publish depth as data. A dollar range built on a depth we don't have would be a guess dressed up as a local number. What we can do is point you at the companies that have actually drilled here — they quote from the same ground, and the logs on this page are their own filings.
