English Oil Unit #16H (API 42-225-31153) is a horizontal well in Houston County operated by HD Operating CO LLC, completed September 4, 2009 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 18, 2009, permitted to 1,700 ft.
It was permitted by Basa Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to HD Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Weches, Queen City, Reklaw, Wilcox.
Its lease has reported 356K barrels of oil since August 2003, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
