Hidalgo County · Texan Gardens-Tabasco N. (Cons) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Cng Gas Unit IV #5 (API 42-215-32073) is a well in Hidalgo County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed November 8, 2005 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in August 1, 2023.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 2006, permitted to 8,600 ft.
It was permitted by Fidelity Explor. & Prod. CO. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Mission, Heard, K.
Its 2 leases have reported 17.1K barrels of oil and 3.22M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in July 2023. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
