Way H. J. B #4 (API 42-039-00219) is a plugged well in Brazoria County, plugged December 13, 1993, last operated by Texaco E & P Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 4, 1990, permitted to 5,723 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Texaco E & P Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 11.1K barrels of oil and 20.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 1998. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
