Ray #1
Clay County · Vashti N.E. (Caddo) field · Vertical
Ray #1 (API 42-077-31562) is a plugged well in Clay County, plugged October 10, 2007, last operated by Willowbend Investments Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 19, 1979, permitted to 6,860 ft.
It was permitted by Tuthill & Barbee and has since transferred to Willowbend Investments Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 8.97K barrels of oil and 15.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
