Bronte Palo Pinto Unit #21 (API 42-081-00277) is a plugged well in Coke County, plugged May 7, 1970, last operated by R3 Operating Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 21, 2021, permitted to 4,800 ft.
It was permitted by Boaz Energy II Operating, LLC and has since transferred to R3 Operating Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Wolfcamp, Canyon, Palo Pinto.
Its lease has reported 292K barrels of oil and 120K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
