Burleson County · Giddings (Buda) field · Producing · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Chance Estate Unit #1RE (API 42-051-33124) is a horizontal well in Burleson County operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC, completed March 20, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1990 and 2001, permitted to 12,220 ft.
It was permitted by Rme Petroleum Company and has since transferred to Wildfire Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, False Buda, Buda.
Its 2 leases have reported 205K barrels of oil and 1.72M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
