Brazoria County · Walk Man (Frio 8000) field · Vertical
Knape #1 (API 42-039-32324) is a plugged well in Brazoria County, plugged January 10, 2017, last operated by Mcgowan Working Partners.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1988 and 2002, permitted to 10,500 ft.
It was permitted by Mcgowan Working Partners, Inc. and has since transferred to Mcgowan Working Partners on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Frio.
Its 5 leases have reported 244K barrels of oil and 248K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2017. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
