Kepner #8A (API 42-097-20370) is a well in Cooke County operated by Bkm Production, completed February 12, 1996 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 27, 1995, permitted to 4,255 ft.
It was permitted by Burk Royalty Company and has since transferred to Bkm Production on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 4.91K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 82.9K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through August 2025.
