Gray County · Panhandle Gray County Field field · Producing · Vertical
Wright #7 (API 42-179-30723) is a well in Gray County operated by Exxcel Production Company, completed February 23, 1980 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 9, 1979, permitted to 2,850 ft.
It was permitted by Southland Royalty Company and has since transferred to Exxcel Production Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Granite Wash.
Its lease has reported 13.3K barrels of oil and 113K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
