Edwards Opal #1 (API 42-133-36914) is a plugged well in Eastland County, plugged July 21, 2004, last operated by Sams Energy Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 30, 1986, permitted to 4,200 ft.

It was permitted by Grimm, Jack F. and has since transferred to Sams Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Strawn, Caddo, Marble Falls, Duffer.

Its 2 leases have reported 2.27K barrels of oil and 37.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2004. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
