Welder P. H. B #9L (API 42-057-31040) is a well in Calhoun County operated by B&L Resources L.L.C., completed November 23, 1999.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1980 and 1999, permitted to 8,375 ft.
It was permitted by Atasca Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to B&L Resources L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 3 leases have reported 457K barrels of oil and 644K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
