Arnold -A- #8 (API 42-065-31878) is a well in Carson County operated by Bce-Mach Iii LLC, completed March 11, 1986 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 25, 1985, permitted to 3,300 ft.
It was permitted by Service Drilling CO. and has since transferred to Bce-Mach Iii LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Panhandle Lime, Brown Dolomite, White Dolomite, Granite Wash.
Its lease has reported 24.5K barrels of oil and 647K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
