Dowdy -B- #16B (API 42-077-33137) is a plugged well in Clay County, plugged April 17, 1998, last operated by Montgomery Petroleum Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 31, 1983, permitted to 1,250 ft.
It was permitted by Berry Oil Company and has since transferred to Montgomery Petroleum Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Thomas Sand.
Its lease has reported 1.7K barrels of oil and 43 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in September 1998. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
