Mead J. #7 (API 42-013-32583) is a plugged well in Atascosa County, plugged August 15, 2024, last operated by Vargas Oil & Gas.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 29, 1984, permitted to 1,900 ft.

It was permitted by Little Oak Oil Company and has since transferred to Vargas Oil & Gas on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Q-1 Olmos.

Its lease has reported 10.5K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 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.
