Hardin County · Batson New field · Producing · Vertical
Vanguard #4 (API 42-199-33364) is a well in Hardin County operated by Silverbrook Operating LLC, completed December 21, 2012 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 29, 2012, permitted to 4,000 ft.
It was permitted by Traton Operating Company and has since transferred to Silverbrook Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 97.4K barrels of oil since January 2012, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Traton Operating Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
