Caldwell County · Salt Flat field · Vertical
Smith R.L. #1 (API 42-055-32543) is a plugged well in Caldwell County, plugged December 15, 2020, last operated by Eagle Ford Oil CO. Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 31, 1981, permitted to 3,000 ft.
It was permitted by Armadillo Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Eagle Ford Oil CO. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.07K barrels of oil and 14 mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
