R.M. Noll #2 (API 42-227-03418) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged January 31, 2024, last operated by Surge Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2010 and 2012, permitted to 7,532 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Surge Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Wolfcamp, Canyon.
Its 4 leases have reported 3.84M barrels of oil and 11.1M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 100 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
