Texas Oil & Gas Map Video Tutorials

These videos walk through how to use MidTex Texas County Maps—including oil & gas well layers, Texas pipeline maps, Texas Land Survey/Texas Land Grid data, and other GIS layers— inside common CAD and GIS workflows. If you are new to our RRC-based Texas county maps, this is the best place to start.

If you arrived here looking for a general Texas county map with county lines, cities, and roads, MidTex doesn’t provide a single statewide wall map. Instead, we offer detailed Texas County Maps for each county, with wells, pipelines, Texas Land Grid, and base layers. The tutorials on this page show how to purchase a county, download the files, and use them in your mapping software.

What This Tutorial Covers

In this Texas oil & gas map video tutorial, you’ll see how to:

• Search for a Texas County Map by county and review coverage, formats, and pricing
• Choose the right datum (NAD27 vs NAD83), projection (Lat/Long, State Plane, UTM), and units for your project
• Download Texas County Maps in DWG/DXF and SHP formats
• Open MidTex county maps in AutoCAD and overlay well, pipeline, and survey layers
• Use GIS software (such as ArcGIS or QGIS) with SHP files for wells, pipelines, Texas land grid, and culture data

Using MidTex Texas County Maps in Your Workflow

MidTex Texas County Maps are built from Texas Railroad Commission (RRC) public data. Each county product includes multiple layers—oil & gas wellspots with API numbers (where available), pipeline alignments, Texas Land Grid, and culture/base layers— that you can turn on and off in your CAD or GIS software.

The tutorials on this page are designed to help you:

• Understand what is included in a typical Texas County Map (wells, pipelines, surveys, culture)
• Decide which map parameters to choose when ordering (format, datum, projection, units)
• Import the files into your existing mapping projects with minimal setup
