Rochester-B- #2A (API 42-055-31224) is a well in Caldwell County operated by Viva Petrol LLP, completed March 1, 1981.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 21, 1979, permitted to 2,800 ft.
It was permitted by Lincoln Oil CO. and has since transferred to Viva Petrol LLP on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 14.1K barrels of oil and 3.12K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
