Franklin County · Talco field · Producing · Horizontal
Talco West Unit #1618H (API 42-159-30575) is a horizontal well in Franklin County operated by J.P. Oil Company Inc., completed January 15, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 9, 2012, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Mobil Corporation and has since transferred to J.P. Oil Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Ector, Woodbine, Goodland.
Its lease has reported 3.99M barrels of oil since July 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 247 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Exxon Mobil Corporation; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
