Brazoria County · Hoskins Mound field · Producing · Directional
Welch Foundation #9 (API 42-039-33145) is a well in Brazoria County operated by Sandpoint Texas LLC, completed January 18, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 20, 2012, permitted to 5,399 ft.
It was permitted by Linc Gulf Coast Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Sandpoint Texas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 256K barrels of oil and 100K mcf of gas since June 2006, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
