Shiner Ranch #1
Frio County · Pearsall (Austin Chalk) field · Horizontal
Shiner Ranch #1 (API 42-163-32725) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged February 28, 2023, last operated by Blackbrush O & G LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 10, 1990, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Gemini Exploration Company and has since transferred to Blackbrush O & G LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Anacacho, Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 871K barrels of oil and 387K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in July 2024. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
