Wharton A.B.JR. C Joa #90 (API 42-165-30702) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged January 6, 2016, last operated by Sabinal Energy Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 24, 1984, permitted to 4,500 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Sabinal Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 180K barrels of oil and 48.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2020. The leases carry 12 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.
