Wheeler Estate A #4 (API 42-107-30809) is a plugged well in Crosby County, plugged September 5, 2017, last operated by J-D Oil CO..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 14, 1984, permitted to 4,250 ft.
It was permitted by Wheeler, Ralph and has since transferred to J-D Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Clear Fork.
Its 4 leases have reported 492K barrels of oil and 233 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 83 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
