Chiles #2 (API 42-073-30514) is a well in Cherokee County operated by Valence Operating Company, completed May 24, 1985.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 28, 1983, permitted to 9,198 ft.
It was permitted by Miller, Paul L. and has since transferred to Valence Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Nacatosh, Top Of Nacatosh, Austin Chalk, Massive Anhy.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.47K barrels of oil and 349K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
