How do I use Pivot when there's a 'Totals' column?

Question

I put together a query that displays the number of wells/year and sums their totals in a column called, "Totals". Please see the db<>fiddle link at the bottom of the post for the working query.

SELECT
    YEAR(wd.eventdate) AS [Year],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_oil.WellID), 0) AS [Oil Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_gas.WellID), 0) AS [Gas Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_service.WellID), 0) AS [Service Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_dry.WellID), 0) AS [Dry Holes],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_tot.WellID), 0) AS [Totals]
FROM HWellDate wd
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_oil ON (w_oil.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_oil.WellType = 'OW')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_gas ON (w_gas.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_gas.WellType = 'GW')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_service ON
    (
    w_service.PKey = wd.WellKey
    AND w_service.WellType IN ('WI','GI','GS','WD','WS','TW')
    )
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_dry ON (w_dry.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_dry.WellType = 'D')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_tot ON w_tot.PKey = wd.WellKey
WHERE wd.comment = 'PA'
    AND wd.event = 'WELLSTATUS'
    AND (YEAR(wd.eventdate) >= (YEAR(GETDATE()) - 4) AND YEAR(wd.eventdate) <= YEAR(GETDATE()))
GROUP BY YEAR(wd.eventdate)

The query works but I'd like to transpose the table so the years are listed at the top as column names and the totals column is a row at the bottom.

Here is the table that is produced from the query above:

Year	Oil Wells	Gas Wells	Service Wells	Dry Holes	Totals
2017	6	7	1	1	15
2018	15	23	5	6	49
2019	7	6	4	5	22
2020	10	16	4	0	30
2021	24	23	3	3	53

Here is what I'd like to have:

Well Types	2021	2020	2019	2018	2017
Oil Wells	24	10	7	15	6
Gas Wells	23	16	6	23	7
Service Wells	3	4	4	5	1
Dry Holes	3	0	5	6	1
Totals	53	30	22	49	15

I think I need to use PIVOT to rotate the table but suspect I may need to use UNPIVOT as well to get the results I'm looking for. I was thinking I could insert the data from the first table into a temp table called, "#wellsPluggedTempTbl". After that, maybe I could use dynamic sql to generate the results.

Here's what I have so far:

DECLARE @colsPivot AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @query  AS NVARCHAR(MAX)

INSERT INTO #wellsPluggedTempTbl([Year], [Oil Wells], [Gas Wells], [Service Wells], [Dry Holes], Totals)
SELECT
    YEAR(wd.eventdate) AS [Year],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_oil.WellID), 0) AS [Oil Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_gas.WellID), 0) AS [Gas Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_service.WellID), 0) AS [Service Wells],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_dry.WellID), 0) AS [Dry Holes],
    ISNULL(COUNT(DISTINCT w_tot.WellID), 0) AS [Totals]
FROM HWellDate wd
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_oil ON (w_oil.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_oil.WellType = 'OW')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_gas ON (w_gas.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_gas.WellType = 'GW')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_service ON
    (
    w_service.PKey = wd.WellKey
    AND w_service.WellType IN ('WI','GI','GS','WD','WS','TW')
    )
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_dry ON (w_dry.PKey = wd.WellKey and w_dry.WellType = 'D')
    LEFT JOIN HWell w_tot ON w_tot.PKey = wd.WellKey
WHERE wd.comment = 'PA'
    AND wd.event = 'WELLSTATUS'
    AND (YEAR(wd.eventdate) >= (YEAR(GETDATE()) - 4) AND YEAR(wd.eventdate) <= YEAR(GETDATE()))
GROUP BY YEAR(wd.eventdate)

However, I get this error after running the above: "Invalid object name '#wellsPluggedTempTbl'.

For the well type ordering at the end, I know I need to use a CASE WHEN statement like this:

ORDER BY
    CASE WellType
        WHEN 'Totals' THEN 5
        WHEN 'Dry Holes' THEN 4
        WHEN 'Service Wells' THEN 3
        WHEN 'Gas Wells' THEN 2
        WHEN 'Oil Wells' THEN 1
    END

Here is a link to db<>fiddle where I have a sampling of the data that produces the results in this post. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

If you first group by the well type and the year, then it becomes easier to pivot in the outer query.

Since the Hole Category can already be calculated in the sub-query.

And by grouping with a rollup and conditional sums, it'll also gets the totals.

SELECT ISNULL(q.HoleCategory, 'Total') AS WellType
, ISNULL(SUM(CASE WHEN q.eventYear=2021 THEN q.Total END),0) AS [2021]
, ISNULL(SUM(CASE WHEN q.eventYear=2020 THEN q.Total END),0) AS [2020]
, ISNULL(SUM(CASE WHEN q.eventYear=2019 THEN q.Total END),0) AS [2019]
, ISNULL(SUM(CASE WHEN q.eventYear=2018 THEN q.Total END),0) AS [2018]
, ISNULL(SUM(CASE WHEN q.eventYear=2017 THEN q.Total END),0) AS [2017]
FROM
(
    SELECT w.WellType
    , YEAR(wd.eventDate) AS eventYear
    ,CASE 
     WHEN w.WellType = 'OW' THEN 'Oil Wells'
     WHEN w.WellType = 'GW' THEN 'Gas Wells'
     WHEN w.WellType IN ('WI','GI','GS','WD','WS','TW') THEN 'Service Wells'
     WHEN w.WellType = 'D' THEN 'Dry Holes'
     END AS HoleCategory 
    , COUNT(DISTINCT w.WellID) AS Total
    FROM HWellDate wd
    LEFT JOIN HWell w ON w.PKey = wd.WellKey
    WHERE wd.comment = 'PA'
      AND wd.event = 'WELLSTATUS'
      AND w.WellType IS NOT NULL
      AND YEAR(wd.eventdate) BETWEEN 2017 AND 2021
    GROUP BY w.WellType, YEAR(wd.eventDate)
) q
GROUP BY ROLLUP(q.HoleCategory)
ORDER BY
    CASE q.HoleCategory
    WHEN 'Oil Wells' THEN 1
    WHEN 'Gas Wells' THEN 2
    WHEN 'Service Wells' THEN 3
    WHEN 'Dry Holes' THEN 4
    ELSE 9
    END
