Local Facts & Community Context for Petrolia, TX
Understanding the local housing stock, population density, and municipal layout of Petrolia (Clay County) helps independent remediation contractors coordinate discreet arrival and efficient biohazard waste transport:
Petrolia is a city in northern Clay County at the crossing of State Highways 79 and 148, about 15 miles east of Wichita Falls, and it is part of the Wichita Falls metropolitan area.
Petrolia is the birthplace of the North Texas oil industry: in 1901, rancher J. W. Lochridge hired Samuel McCord to dig a water well three miles southeast of the present town, and the well struck oil at just 263 feet — opening the first oilfield in North Texas; Lochridge at first used the oil for dipping cattle to rid them of parasites.
The original boom settlement was called Oil City, but when the Wichita Falls and Oklahoma Railway arrived in 1904 the population moved to the railroad, and the new town was named Petrolia after the oil town of Petrolia, Pennsylvania; it received its own post office in 1904.
Natural gas was discovered in the Petrolia field in 1907, and the Lone Star Gas Company was organized in 1909 to develop it — by 1913, pipelines from Petrolia were supplying gas to Dallas, Fort Worth, and 21 other towns.
The Petrolia field held the largest known reserve of natural gas in Texas at the time, and in 1915 the U.S. Army built the nation's first helium extraction plant at Petrolia; for several years the field was the sole source of helium in the country.
The field's biggest oil moment came on December 17, 1910, when the Dorthulia Dunn No. 1 well blew in at 700 barrels a day from 1,600 feet, and production peaked in 1914 at 550,585 barrels.
Petrolia reached its highest population, 914, in the mid-1920s; the 2020 census counted 514 residents in 218 households.
Petrolia lost its railroad in 1943 when the Wichita Falls and Oklahoma tracks were abandoned.
Petrolia is served by the Petrolia Independent School District and is home to the Petrolia High School Pirates.
Notable people born in Petrolia include actor Reed Hadley, star of Racket Squad and The Public Defender, and NFL wide receiver David Nelson.
