Sawyer #1 (API 42-049-34862) is a plugged well in Brown County, plugged September 13, 2011, last operated by Shady Oil CO..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 3, 1987, permitted to 2,999 ft.

It was permitted by Quita, Inc. and has since transferred to Shady Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Ellenburger.

Its lease has reported 85.6K barrels of oil and 568 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
