Schwab D. L. #4 W
Hockley County · D-L-S (San Andres) field · Vertical
Schwab D. L. #4 W (API 42-219-33283) is a plugged well in Hockley County, plugged August 26, 1996, last operated by Rocker A Operating Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 23, 1981, permitted to 5,200 ft.
It was permitted by Wheeler Oil Company and has since transferred to Rocker A Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 44K barrels of oil and 37.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2003. The lease carries 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Wheeler Oil Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
