Moore 2 #1 (API 42-177-30719) is a plugged well in Gonzales County, plugged September 19, 2025, last operated by Thomas Mike.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 11, 1980, permitted to 6,200 ft.
It was permitted by Exxeter Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Thomas Mike on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its 2 leases have reported 44.7K barrels of oil and 184 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Exxeter Petroleum Corp.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
