Novice Unit #8023 (API 42-083-33227) is a plugged well in Coleman County, plugged July 24, 1985, last operated by Seven Cross Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1982 and 1990, permitted to 3,848 ft.

It was permitted by Plains Petroleum Operating CO. and has since transferred to Seven Cross Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 561K barrels of oil and 685K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 53 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
