Duval County · Casa Blanca field · Shut In · Vertical
Duval County Ranch CO. #53 (API 42-131-36076) is a well in Duval County operated by Hinds Petroleum LLC, completed November 20, 1985 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 1998.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 30, 1982, permitted to 1,800 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Corpus and has since transferred to Hinds Petroleum LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Casa Blanca.
Its lease has reported 463K barrels of oil and 1.35K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in December 2024. The lease carries 34 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
