WELL · 42-169-32769 · DISTRICT 8
Franklin #2
Garza County · P. H. D. field · Producing · Vertical
Franklin #2 (API 42-169-32769) is a well in Garza County operated by Viejo Oil & Gas LLC, completed April 20, 1988 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 10, 1987, permitted to 4,300 ft.
It was permitted by Stelzer, J. C. and has since transferred to Viejo Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including San Andres, Glorieta.
Its lease has reported 130K barrels of oil and 20 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Stelzer, J. C.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
