Joe Brown #1 (API 42-049-31877) is a plugged well in Brown County, plugged June 10, 2022, last operated by Dmv Pipeline LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1978 and 2007, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Ames Oil and has since transferred to Dmv Pipeline LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Caddo, Ranger.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.74K barrels of oil and 2.08K 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.
Operator of record
