The Michigan Geological Repository for Research and Education at Western Michigan University received a collection of Scout Tickets from a former employee of Pure Oil Company. These documents have been scanned and in some cases are the only information available for wells drilled before the state began permitting wells in 1927. The documents are hybrids of data that are usually included on scout tickets and driller’s reports. They include information on the well location, well name, operator name, elevation, total depth drilled, permit number (if given one), drilling dates, comments from the driller, and sometimes stratigraphic top data and drilling observations and tests. There are over 10,000 scans representing oil and gas, water and test wells. These documents can be viewed and downloaded from the Legacy Pure Scout Tickets Spreadsheet by clicking on the link or by clicking on the link on the ScholarWorks page.
