Parke Henry #2 (API 42-165-32951) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged December 7, 2002, last operated by Great Western Drilling Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 22, 1984, permitted to 8,800 ft.

It was permitted by Moran Exploration, Inc. and has since transferred to Great Western Drilling Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including San Andres, Glorieta, Clear Fork, Tubb.

Its lease has reported 42.6K barrels of oil and 25 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2003. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
