Wiederkehr L. #139 (API 42-131-02533) is a well in Duval County operated by Black Gold Operating CO LLC, completed June 1, 1980 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 16, 1980, permitted to 2,104 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Houston and has since transferred to Black Gold Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 6.02K barrels of oil and 2.62K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
