Riley M. C. #1 (API 42-165-30036) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged April 26, 1993, last operated by Scythian Ltd..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1981 and 1988, permitted to 7,620 ft.

It was permitted by Texland-Rector & Schumacher and has since transferred to Scythian Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Seven Rivers.

Its lease has reported 12.4K barrels of oil and 67 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2000. The lease carries 3 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.
