Vaughn #1
Howard County · Moore field · Shut IN · Vertical
Vaughn #1 (API 42-227-31984) is a well in Howard County operated by Johnson Operating Company LLC., completed November 10, 1979 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 4, 1979, permitted to 3,300 ft.
It was permitted by P-R-O Management, Inc. and has since transferred to Johnson Operating Company LLC. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 10.7K barrels of oil and 6 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
