Garza County · Forbes (San Andres) field · Producing · Vertical
Forbes Unit #2 (API 42-169-31698) is a well in Garza County operated by Trinidad Energy LLC, completed October 5, 1985 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1981 and 1985, permitted to 4,100 ft.
It was permitted by Mitchell Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Trinidad Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Grayburg, San Andres, Glorieta, Clear Fork.
Its 2 leases have reported 635K barrels of oil and 141K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 26 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
