Las Vegas Ranch #48 (API 42-127-32529) is a plugged well in Dimmit County, plugged December 13, 2019, last operated by Trinity Operating (Usg) LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 15, 1984, permitted to 6,300 ft.

It was permitted by Superior Oil Company, The and has since transferred to Trinity Operating (Usg) LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including San Miguel.

Its lease has reported 135K barrels of oil and 24.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2020. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
