Burleson County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Shut In · Horizontal · Directional · Sidetrack
Groce A. #1H (API 42-051-32944) is a horizontal well in Burleson County operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC, completed July 11, 1996 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in June 1, 2023.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1986 and 1996, permitted to 8,720 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 84.5K barrels of oil and 1.06M mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
