Gulf Fee #40
Hardin County · Batson Old field · Producing · Vertical
Gulf Fee #40 (API 42-199-33206) is a well in Hardin County operated by Slatex Well Service Inc., completed June 1, 2009 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 23, 2009, permitted to 1,200 ft.
It was permitted by Bhb Operating Inc. and has since transferred to Slatex Well Service Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 218K barrels of oil and 420 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 35 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by BHB Operating Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
