Hirsch M. #2 (API 42-201-30949) is a plugged well in Harris County, plugged June 16, 2006, last operated by Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 1, 1979, permitted to 9,890 ft.
It was permitted by BC Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 19.8K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2006. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
