Beck K. L. #38 (API 42-029-31328) is a plugged well in Bexar County, plugged July 15, 2024, last operated by Ginco Operating CO..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 29, 1981, permitted to 800 ft.
It was permitted by Grace Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Ginco Operating CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Olmos.
Its 2 leases have reported 16.4K barrels of oil and 26 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 30 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
