Montgomery Estate-Davies NCT-2 #53AH
Hockley County · Levelland field · Shut In · Horizontal
Montgomery Estate-Davies Nct-2 #53AH (API 42-219-36251) is a horizontal well in Hockley County operated by Bce-Mach Iii LLC, completed December 4, 1999 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 1999, permitted to 4,840 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Bce-Mach Iii LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 11M barrels of oil and 3.54M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 198 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
