Hoover #2 (API 42-211-31607) is a plugged well in Hemphill County, plugged August 1, 2013, last operated by Apache Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 8, 1983, permitted to 7,900 ft.
It was permitted by Rio Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 898 barrels of oil and 267K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2014. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
