North Pioneer Unit #16 (API 42-133-32528) is a plugged well in Eastland County, plugged April 16, 2012, last operated by Braka Operating L.L.C..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 12, 1980, permitted to 2,700 ft.
It was permitted by Cordova Resources Inc. and has since transferred to Braka Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.26M barrels of oil and 158K mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 129 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
