H & J 495 D #1 (API 42-165-01619) is a well in Gaines County operated by Minc Oil CO. LLC, completed December 22, 2002 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in September 1, 2004.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1987 and 2002, permitted to 11,154 ft.

It was permitted by Platinum Exploration Inc. and has since transferred to Minc Oil CO. LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 42.8K barrels of oil and 1.17K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
