Metcalfe Oil Unit #1A (API 42-055-35164) is a well in Caldwell County operated by Cavalier Oil & Gas Inc., completed December 4, 2021 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 21, 2021, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Benchmark Texas Petroleum, LLC. and has since transferred to Cavalier Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford, Buda, Edwards.
Its lease has reported 49 barrels of oil since December 2021, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
