Skipper Unit #1H
Fayette County · Giddings (Austin Chalk Gas) field · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Skipper Unit #1H (API 42-149-30436) is a horizontal well in Fayette County operated by Usfg Oil & Gas Inc., completed March 4, 1980.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1979 and 1994, permitted to 13,500 ft.
It was permitted by Mescalero Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Usfg Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its 2 leases have reported 67.2K barrels of oil and 1.13M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
