Caldwell County · Dunlap field · Vertical
Kimball R.B. -A- #B 1 (API 42-055-31670) is a plugged well in Caldwell County, plugged February 22, 2002, last operated by Cole Frank W Engineering.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 3, 1980, permitted to 2,600 ft.
It was permitted by American States Energy CO. and has since transferred to Cole Frank W Engineering on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.61K barrels of oil and 4 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2003. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
