Avant J.R. #2 (API 42-163-32588) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged December 9, 2020, last operated by Trinity Operating (Usg) LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 27, 1989, permitted to 9,800 ft.
It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Trinity Operating (Usg) LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Olmos, Anacacho, Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 605K barrels of oil and 386K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
