Gray W. L. #1 (API 42-157-31807) is a plugged well in Fort Bend County, plugged February 21, 2006, last operated by Sue-Ann Operating L.C..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1989 and 2004, permitted to 6,813 ft.
It was permitted by Altman Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Sue-Ann Operating L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Frio.
Its 2 leases have reported 49.9K barrels of oil and 20.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2009. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
