Brazoria County · Manvel (F.B. I Oligocene) field · Vertical
Belcher W. T. B #54 (API 42-039-31215) is a disposal or injection well in Brazoria County operated by Denbury Onshore LLC under an active UIC permit.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 6, 1978, permitted to 6,400 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Denbury Onshore LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Frio, Sand/Anahuac.
Its lease has reported 1.6M barrels of oil and 4.04M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 37 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
