Bennett J. M. #1
Duval County · Bennett Ranch (3RD Cook Mtn.) field · Vertical
Bennett J. M. #1 (API 42-131-37340) is a plugged well in Duval County, plugged August 31, 2018, last operated by Hughes Dan A. Company L.P..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 14, 1990, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Hughes, Dan A. Company and has since transferred to Hughes Dan A. Company L.P. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Cole, Gov'T Wells, O'Hern, Pettus.
Its lease has reported 231K barrels of oil and 545K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 14 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
