Busbee #D 1 (API 42-049-35304) is a plugged well in Brown County, plugged February 10, 2022, last operated by Mer Resources.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 21, 1990, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by M-Quest Resources and has since transferred to Mer Resources on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Caddo.
Its lease has reported 3.39K barrels of oil and 1.18K 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.
