Braden Joseph #2 D
Brazoria County · Chenango E.(burkhead Sd.) field · Vertical
Braden Joseph #2 D (API 42-039-32130) is a plugged well in Brazoria County, plugged November 26, 1990, last operated by Huber J. M. Corporation.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1986 and 1999, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Chain Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to Huber J. M. Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Anahuac, Frio.
Its 2 leases have reported 153K barrels of oil and 45K mcf of gas since May 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 509K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through August 2025.
