Froese #1RE
Fayette County · Giddings (Austin Chalk Gas) field · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Froese #1RE (API 42-149-31248) is a horizontal well in Fayette County operated by Luck Petroleum Corporation, completed October 12, 1984.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1981 and 2000, permitted to 14,000 ft.
It was permitted by Rme Petroleum Company and has since transferred to Luck Petroleum Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Midway, Navarro, Austin Chalk.
Its 2 leases have reported 36.8K barrels of oil and 515K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
