Kelsey-Smyer #2 (API 42-219-33588) is a plugged well in Hockley County, plugged November 7, 2013, last operated by Aviator Energy LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 20, 1982, permitted to 5,100 ft.

It was permitted by Ken-Cas Oil CO. and has since transferred to Aviator Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.

Its lease has reported 212K barrels of oil and 93K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
