Duval County · Lundell field · Shut In · Vertical
Dcr 257 #2 (API 42-131-38026) is a well in Duval County operated by Killam Oil CO. Ltd., completed May 5, 1995 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 1998.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 4, 1995, permitted to 1,800 ft.
It was permitted by Sonat Exploration CO. - Houston and has since transferred to Killam Oil CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Cole.
Its lease has reported 59.5K barrels of oil and 7 mcf of gas since March 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
