Txl -B- #8 (API 42-135-35300) is a well in Ector County operated by Aghorn Operating Inc., completed July 3, 1986.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1986 and 2009, permitted to 4,550 ft.

It was permitted by Chesapeake Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Aghorn Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Tanisll, Yates, Svnr, Grayburg.

Its 3 leases have reported 71K barrels of oil and 332K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
