Bongo Hunter Unit #8H (API 42-177-34254) is a horizontal well in Gonzales County operated by FW Eagle Ford I LLC, completed July 23, 2020 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 7, 2020, permitted to 14,500 ft.
It was permitted by Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. and has since transferred to FW Eagle Ford I LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 1.41M barrels of oil and 869K mcf of gas since October 2013, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
