Newsom C. A. Estate #9 (API 42-161-31626) is a plugged well in Freestone County, plugged January 23, 2004, last operated by Xto Energy Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued September 2, 1999, permitted to 13,500 ft.
It was permitted by Cross Timbers Operating Company and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including BMA, Pettit, Travis Peak, Bossier.
Its 3 leases have reported 14 barrels of oil and 2.1M mcf of gas since December 1999, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
