Hess J. W. #33 (API 42-097-31639) is a well in Cooke County operated by V & H Oil L.P., completed June 4, 1992 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1980 and 1991, permitted to 1,675 ft.
It was permitted by Nadel & Gussman and has since transferred to V & H Oil L.P. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Walterschied Sand, Strawn.
Its lease has reported 16.8K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
