Sells Katherine M. #1 (API 42-057-30832) is a plugged well in Calhoun County, plugged September 1, 2004, last operated by Davis Oil Company.
The RRC has issued 6 drilling permits between 1978 and 1988, permitted to 9,500 ft.
It was permitted by Kaiser-Francis Oil Company and has since transferred to Davis Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Frio, Davis.
Its 3 leases have reported 612 barrels of oil and 22 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in November 2004. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
