Gulf #8
Archer County · Archer County Regular field · Vertical
Gulf #8 (API 42-009-38375) is a well in Archer County operated by Finnell Oil Services Inc., completed August 15, 1984.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 27, 1984, permitted to 1,850 ft.
It was permitted by Shappell Oil Company and has since transferred to Finnell Oil Services Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 24.5K barrels of oil and 59 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
