Cato #10 (API 42-197-31466) is a well in Hardeman County operated by Corda Corporation, completed January 29, 2001 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 31, 2000, permitted to 8,100 ft.
It was permitted by Decleva, Paul and has since transferred to Corda Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Barnett, Chester, Meramec Lime, Meramec Shale.
Its lease has reported 966K barrels of oil and 19 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
