WELL · 42-163-31740 · DISTRICT 1
Stacy W.E. #4
Frio County · Pearsall (Austin Chalk) field · Vertical
Stacy W.E. #4 (API 42-163-31740) is a well in Frio County operated by Oryx Energy Company, completed April 29, 1980.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1979 and 2000, permitted to 6,900 ft.
It was permitted by Light Resources and has since transferred to Oryx Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 81.5K barrels of oil and 27.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
Operator of record
Permitted by Light Resources; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
