Clark-Richardson #17 (API 42-009-39794) is a plugged well in Archer County, plugged December 8, 2020, last operated by Palmer Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 19, 1987, permitted to 1,500 ft.

It was permitted by Gray, J. T., Estate and has since transferred to Palmer Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Gunsight, Swastika Sand.

Its lease has reported 183K barrels of oil and 206 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 26 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
