Fitzsimmons Hugh A #4205 (API 42-127-33148) is a plugged well in Dimmit County, plugged June 24, 2023, last operated by Prime Operating Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 29, 1998, permitted to 4,000 ft.

It was permitted by Union Pacific Resources Company and has since transferred to Prime Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Escondido, Olmos, San Miguel.

Its lease has reported 169K barrels of oil and 2.67M mcf of gas since June 1997, last reporting in January 2025. The lease carries 27 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
