Hughes #1 (API 42-025-33772) is a well in Bee County operated by Rincon Petroleum Corporation, completed December 15, 2011.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 23, 2011, permitted to 4,200 ft.

It was permitted by Esenjay Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Rincon Petroleum Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Frio, Hockley.

Its 2 leases have reported 14.1K barrels of oil and 51.1K mcf of gas since December 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 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.
