Knox #2RE (API 42-051-32825) is a plugged horizontal well in Burleson County, plugged April 14, 2026, last operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 2000, permitted to 14,500 ft.
It was permitted by Union Pacific Resources Company and has since transferred to Wildfire Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford.
Its lease has reported 112K barrels of oil and 2.05M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
