Fanous #2 (API 42-059-36626) is a well in Callahan County operated by Iron Bell Operating LLC, completed February 24, 2004 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 4, 2003, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by West Inland Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Iron Bell Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Palo Pinto, Bend.
Its lease has reported 7.69K barrels of oil and 133K mcf of gas since September 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
