Cherokee County · White Oak Creek (Travis Peak) field · Vertical
New Birmingham B Gas Unit #1 #1 (API 42-073-01030) is a plugged well in Cherokee County, plugged June 12, 2026, last operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 27, 1994, permitted to 11,400 ft.
It was permitted by Marathon Oil Company and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Woodbine, Buda, Base Mass. Anhyd/Rodessa.
Its 2 leases have reported 4.54K barrels of oil and 2.28M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in March 2024. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
