Johnson J. L. B #87
Ector County · Johnson (Holt) field · Vertical
Johnson J. L. B #87 (API 42-135-32704) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged February 24, 2009, last operated by Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1977 and 1987, permitted to 5,350 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Grayburg, Holt.
Its 3 leases have reported 1.46M barrels of oil and 1.07M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 131 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
