Chambers County · Trinity Bay (Frio 9) field · Vertical
Trinity Bay State Unit NO. 1 #116 (API 42-071-30160) is a plugged well in Chambers County, plugged July 23, 2007, last operated by Galveston Bay Operating CO LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1979 and 1990, permitted to 8,250 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Galveston Bay Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.27M barrels of oil and 1.72M mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
