Ray E.C. #7 (API 42-049-34136) is a plugged well in Brown County, plugged October 13, 2021, last operated by BC Exploration LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 14, 1984, permitted to 1,999 ft.
It was permitted by Copet, Inc. and has since transferred to BC Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Fry Sand, Caddo.
Its lease has reported 14K barrels of oil and 20 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 13 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Copet, Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
