Pipkin S. W. -A- #17 (API 42-071-32028) is a well in Chambers County operated by Gcows Operating LLC, completed January 11, 1995 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 1, 1994, permitted to 9,300 ft.
It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Gcows Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Seabreeze.
Its lease has reported 1.19M barrels of oil and 2.63M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
