Practically speaking only what is needed for a drilling rig to fit in. Legally speaking, it depends on several factors as determined by the regulating authority which bases its requirements on engineering formulas designed to calculate how much of the surrounding subsurface area will be effectively drained by the well bore. The determining factors used in the calculations are the depth, porosity, psi, whether it is primarily an oil well or a gas well.
On average, an oil drilling site requires about 2-5 acres of land, but this can vary depending on the specific location and drilling technique being used. The exact area needed will be determined by factors such as the size of the oil field, the number of wells being drilled, and the surface infrastructure required.
