Morton R.P. #17 (API 42-133-33711) is a plugged well in Eastland County, plugged September 12, 2023, last operated by Interstate Explorations LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 8, 1982, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Ridgeway Oil Expl & Dev., Inc and has since transferred to Interstate Explorations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Patio.
Its lease has reported 18.3K barrels of oil and 40 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2024. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
