Lightsey #1H
Brazos County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Horizontal
Lightsey #1H (API 42-041-31551) is a horizontal well in Brazos County operated by Bbl Operating Company LLC, completed December 22, 1991.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1991 and 2013, permitted to 11,400 ft.
It was permitted by 7711 Operating Company, LLC and has since transferred to Bbl Operating Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Wilcox, Pecan Gap, Woodbine, Austin Chalk.
Its 2 leases have reported 127K barrels of oil and 460K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
