Boren Gas Unit #2
Hidalgo County · Jeffress NE. (Cons. U\v) field · SWR-10-Well · Vertical
Boren Gas Unit #2 (API 42-215-32335) is a well in Hidalgo County operated by Merit Energy Company, completed September 25, 1999 and listed as swr-10-well on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 1999, permitted to 14,100 ft.
It was permitted by Coastal Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Merit Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Vicksburg.
Its 2 leases have reported 76.6K barrels of oil and 12.7M mcf of gas since October 1996, last reporting volume in July 2025. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
