Kurten Woodbine Unit #3722I (API 42-041-31296) is a plugged well in Brazos County, plugged September 14, 2021, last operated by Vess Oil Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 3, 1985, permitted to 9,200 ft.
It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Vess Oil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Woodbine.
Its lease has reported 10.6M barrels of oil and 11.6M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 247 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
