Tsotsos #4 (API 42-175-34249) is a plugged well in Goliad County, plugged May 10, 2022, last operated by Erskine Energy LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 15, 2017, permitted to 5,500 ft.

It was permitted by Alta Mesa Services, LP and has since transferred to Erskine Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Catahoula, Frio, Vicksburg.

Its lease has reported 24.2K barrels of oil and 89.1K mcf of gas since January 2018, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
