Buerger #1 (API 42-009-35182) is a plugged well in Archer County, plugged July 19, 2006, last operated by Schenk Oil CO..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 17, 1981, permitted to 1,600 ft.

It was permitted by Palmer, James W. and has since transferred to Schenk Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Thomas Sand.

Its lease has reported 10.9K barrels of oil and 32 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
