Super Unit #453 (API 42-181-31193) is a well in Grayson County operated by Flintlock Exploration LLC, completed July 29, 2020 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1987 and 1991, permitted to 7,100 ft.

It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Flintlock Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Strawn, Barnes, S Sand, U Sand.

Its 2 leases have reported 3M barrels of oil and 1.57M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 208 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
