David John #2A
Houston County · Laura la Velle S. (1600) field · Shut IN · Vertical
David John #2A (API 42-225-30826) is a well in Houston County operated by HD Operating CO LLC, completed December 20, 1992 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 21, 1990, permitted to 1,800 ft.
It was permitted by P.A.M. Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to HD Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Queen City, Carrizo, Wilcox.
Its lease has reported 248K barrels of oil and 27 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by P.A.M. Petroleum, Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
