Smith ET AL #1 (API 42-163-30072) is a plugged well in Frio County, plugged June 20, 2005, last operated by Nutek Oil Inc.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 13, 1999, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Clipper Operating CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Nutek Oil Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 498 barrels of oil and 29 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in February 2006. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
