You hear about people that hit “gushers” back in the day. Do we not hear about them now or is it no longer a thing that happens?

Despite what people are saying, as long as the oil is paired with enough natural gas pressure, it’ll still come shooting out. That’s what an oil well blowout is. It’s dangerous and methods today control the pressure rather than just letting it buck and throw the oil you want to sell all over the place.
After the well loses natural pressure, that’s when you throw a pump jack on it to draw the rest of the oil and condensate up.
