Nixon-Steinle #2 (API 42-013-01970) is a plugged well in Atascosa County, plugged January 6, 2017, last operated by Vanguard Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2002 and 2004, permitted to 7,412 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Vanguard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Buda, Georgetown, T. Edwards (Zone 1a), L. Edwards (Zone 1).
Its 4 leases have reported 16.9K barrels of oil and 2.71M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2017. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
