Bee County · Theis field  · Vertical

Hughes #2R (API 42-025-31050) is a plugged well in Bee County, plugged May 31, 2023, last operated by Paloma Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1979 and 2016, permitted to 4,000 ft.

It was permitted by Cimarron Engineering, LLC and has since transferred to Paloma Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Catahoula, Frio, Eagle Ford, Edwards.

Its lease has reported 33.4K barrels of oil and 602 mcf of gas since June 2015, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
