Engle C. J. #1 (API 42-227-33728) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged October 5, 1999, last operated by Federal Oil Inc..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 2004, permitted to 9,500 ft.

It was permitted by Parish, John R. and has since transferred to Federal Oil Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its 2 leases have reported 108 barrels of oil and 1 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
