Orca. Turnham Mrs.John C. #2 (API 42-163-31868) is a plugged well in Frio County, plugged April 8, 2004, last operated by Golden Child Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 6, 1980, permitted to 7,400 ft.
It was permitted by Fair Energy and has since transferred to Golden Child Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 133 barrels of oil and 364 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
