Cooper-Williams Gas Unit NO. 2 #1 (API 42-167-30658) is a plugged well in Galveston County, plugged January 12, 2006, last operated by Superior Oil Company The.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1978 and 1993, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Kerns O & G, Inc. and has since transferred to Superior Oil Company The on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Frio, 24 Sand, T/Frio, 32 Sand.
Its 3 leases have reported 3.08K barrels of oil and 94.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
