Gray County · Panhandle Gray County Field field · Vertical
Case #1 (API 42-179-31771) is a plugged well in Gray County, plugged December 22, 2021, last operated by Dalf Energy LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 22, 1985, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Daniels Energy Company and has since transferred to Dalf Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Red Bed, Granite Wash.
Its lease has reported 20.7K barrels of oil and 498K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
