Mckean M. #516 (API 42-029-35051) is a well in Bexar County operated by South Sam Operating Company LLC, completed March 16, 1984 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule, shut in June 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 13, 1984, permitted to 340 ft.
It was permitted by Kipling, Inc. and has since transferred to South Sam Operating Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 35.6K barrels of oil and 138 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 90 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
