Vela #11
Duval County · Jaboncillos (7200) field · SWR-10-Well · Vertical
Vela #11 (API 42-131-38702) is a well in Duval County operated by Welderxp Ltd., completed August 11, 2005 and listed as swr-10-well on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 2016.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 2004 and 2005, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Noble Energy Inc and has since transferred to Welderxp Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Caddo, Bandera, Hockley, Yegua.
Its 2 leases have reported 8.28K barrels of oil and 858K mcf of gas since July 2004, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
