James #1 (API 42-083-35397) is a plugged well in Coleman County, plugged December 18, 2017, last operated by Blanton Oil LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 2, 1993, permitted to 2,999 ft.

It was permitted by Guidance Oil Developers, Inc. and has since transferred to Blanton Oil LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Cross Cut Sand.

Its lease has reported 7.66K barrels of oil since September 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
