James Wood Unit #2 (API 42-051-33578) is a plugged horizontal well in Burleson County, plugged September 23, 2025, last operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 18, 2000, permitted to 7,500 ft.

It was permitted by Williams, Clayton Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Wildfire Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.

Its lease has reported 307K barrels of oil and 243K mcf of gas since January 1995, last reporting volume in March 2026. 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.
