Cade E. K. #147 (API 42-167-31463) is a plugged well in Galveston County, plugged October 31, 2016, last operated by Big Lake Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued January 24, 2008, permitted to 9,765 ft.

It was permitted by Houston Oil Prod Enterprises,Inc and has since transferred to Big Lake Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Gumbo/Sand.

Its lease has reported 2.24M barrels of oil and 1.18M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 74 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
