Bexar County · Somerset field · Vertical
Edwards J.W. #2 (API 42-029-31673) is a plugged well in Bexar County, plugged August 5, 1999, last operated by Great Plains Resources Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 28, 1981, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by Schimmel, V.G. and has since transferred to Great Plains Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 36 barrels of oil and 9 mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
