Banks D. #1RE (API 42-051-32596) is a plugged horizontal well in Burleson County, plugged July 8, 2020, last operated by Chesapeake Operating L.L.C..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 2004, permitted to 12,500 ft.
It was permitted by Wcs Oil And Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Chesapeake Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford.
Its 3 leases have reported 9.3K barrels of oil and 503K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2021. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
