Glasscock County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Vertical
Edwin J. Bednar Oil Unit #1 (API 42-173-31724) is a plugged well in Glasscock County, plugged April 7, 2005, last operated by Exxon Mobil Corporation.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1997, permitted to 10,500 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Exxon Mobil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 13 formation tops, including Rustler, Tansill, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 4.11K barrels of oil and 25.4K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2005. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
