Johnson J. L. B #97 (API 42-135-33177) is a well in Ector County operated by GL Energy Operating LLC, completed June 22, 1996 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits in 1979, permitted to 5,600 ft.

It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to GL Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Holt, Glorieta.

Its 2 leases have reported 271K barrels of oil and 152K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
