Vaughn Gary M. B #8 (API 42-083-33830) is a plugged well in Coleman County, plugged November 27, 2023, last operated by Black Strata LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1993, permitted to 4,700 ft.

It was permitted by Targo Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to Black Strata LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Morris, Capps, Gardner, Ellenburger.

Its 2 leases have reported 582 barrels of oil and 1.78K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
