Colorado County · Columbus (Consolidated) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Columbus Field Unit #1705 (API 42-089-00309) is a well in Colorado County operated by Rusk Energy Operating LLC, completed August 6, 1997 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2003.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1995 and 1997, permitted to 10,286 ft.
It was permitted by Oxy USA Inc. and has since transferred to Rusk Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 571K barrels of oil and 1.66M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 34 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
