Fanous #1 (API 42-059-36413) is a well in Callahan County operated by Iron Bell Operating LLC, completed September 5, 1996.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued July 16, 1996, permitted to 4,100 ft.
It was permitted by Arledge & Young, Inc. and has since transferred to Iron Bell Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 7.69K barrels of oil and 136K mcf of gas since September 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
