Plugged

Brooks County · Kelsey (Frio Consol.) field · Vertical

Mcgill Bros. #165 (API 42-047-01123) is a plugged well in Brooks County, plugged October 8, 2009, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1981 and 1993, permitted to 6,450 ft.

It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Its 4 leases have reported 107K barrels of oil and 589K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 49 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
