Way H. J. -B- #2 (API 42-039-01262) is a well in Brazoria County operated by Denbury Onshore LLC, completed July 4, 2019 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 9, 1984, permitted to 4,200 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Denbury Onshore LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Oakville, Caprock, Frio, Het Lime - Disposal.
Its lease has reported 179K barrels of oil and 506K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
