Mckinley Lela #2 (API 42-163-30425) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged May 4, 2023, last operated by Tiza Energy Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 7, 1990, permitted to 7,600 ft.
It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Tiza Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Anacacho, Austin Chalk, Chalk, Lwr Chalk.
Its lease has reported 10.1K barrels of oil and 22 mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
