Machann West Unit #1H (API 42-051-33700) is a horizontal well in Burleson County operated by Wildfire Energy Operating LLC, completed December 20, 2011 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in September 1, 2022.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued October 13, 2011, permitted to 8,202 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 2 leases have reported 89.8K barrels of oil and 1.3M mcf of gas since April 2001, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 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.
