Moss Paul Unit #196 (API 42-135-34662) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged September 28, 2009, last operated by R3 Operating Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 3, 1984, permitted to 4,550 ft.

It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Midland and has since transferred to R3 Operating Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen.

Its lease has reported 2.7M barrels of oil and 902K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 150 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.
