New Hope Unit #21T (API 42-159-00521) is a permitted well in Franklin County filed by Texaco E & P Inc.; no completion report is on file yet.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 23, 1994, permitted to 8,230 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to J.P. Oil Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 741K barrels of oil and 346K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 23 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
