Jones B #7H (API 42-165-02404) is a plugged horizontal well in Gaines County, plugged February 15, 2024, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2008 and 2010, permitted to 11,191 ft.

It was permitted by Xto Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 15 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, San Andres, Glorieta.

Its lease has reported 212K barrels of oil and 56.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 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.
