WELL · 42-125-30643 · DISTRICT 8
Gale #2
Dickens County · Navigator (Tannehill B) field · Vertical
Gale #2 (API 42-125-30643) is a well in Dickens County operated by Burk-Gunn Oil CO., completed May 28, 1997.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 1, 1997, permitted to 4,800 ft.
It was permitted by Eastern Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Burk-Gunn Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Tannehill.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.56M barrels of oil and 455K mcf of gas since May 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 30 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 50.1K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through April 2026.
