Shiner Ranch #9 (API 42-163-33124) is a plugged horizontal well in Frio County, plugged February 28, 1996, last operated by Trinity Operating (Usg) LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued February 25, 1992, permitted to 7,575 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 1st Lime, Anacacho, Austin Chalk.

Its lease has reported 634K barrels of oil and 1.22M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 13 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
