Kainer John E. ET AL #2 (API 42-167-31280) is a plugged well in Galveston County, plugged August 17, 2009, last operated by Doggy Oil Corp.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended 3 times), issued February 5, 1997, permitted to 10,000 ft.
It was permitted by Bristol Resources Corporation and has since transferred to Doggy Oil Corp on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Anahuac, Frio.
Its lease has reported 63.1K barrels of oil and 18 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2023. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
