Moore J. M. Etal #216
Fort Bend County · Moores Orchard field · Shut IN · Vertical
Moore J. M. Etal #216 (API 42-157-31819) is a well in Fort Bend County operated by Cml Exploration LLC, completed July 30, 1990 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 9, 1989, permitted to 16,000 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Cml Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Frio, Vicksburg, Yegua.
Its lease has reported 231K barrels of oil and 499K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 21 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
