English Oil Unit #2 (API 42-225-30498) is a well in Houston County operated by HD Operating CO LLC, completed March 15, 1984 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2025.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 13, 1983, permitted to 1,587 ft.
It was permitted by Goldking Prod. CO. and has since transferred to HD Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Massive Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 570K barrels of oil and 35 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in February 2025. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
