Briscoe Belle Unit #2 (API 42-051-33087) is a plugged horizontal well in Burleson County, plugged October 6, 2011, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 5, 1990, permitted to 14,300 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco Producing Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.

Its lease has reported 8.1K barrels of oil and 485K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2023. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
