Bell Melvin A #2 (API 42-083-33892) is a plugged well in Coleman County, plugged August 9, 2000, last operated by Bilbo Wireline Service Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 29, 1983, permitted to 5,000 ft.

It was permitted by O-B Oils, Inc. and has since transferred to Bilbo Wireline Service Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Morris, Gray, Ellenburger.

Its lease has reported 9.58K barrels of oil and 44 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in December 2000. The lease carries 4 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.
