McGill Bros. #478
Brooks County · Kelsey (Stray 2200 Upper) field · Directional
Mcgill Bros. #478 (API 42-047-30993) is a plugged well in Brooks County, plugged May 10, 2001, last operated by Exxon Mobil Corporation.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1981 and 1994, permitted to 7,200 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Exxon Mobil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 4 leases have reported 161K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
