New Hope Unit #7002 (API 42-159-30480) is a plugged horizontal well in Franklin County, plugged October 17, 1997, last operated by J.P. Oil Company Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued September 17, 1991, permitted to 10,000 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to J.P. Oil Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.59M barrels of oil and 729K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
