Hutchinson County · Panhandle Hutchinson County Fld. field · Producing · Vertical
Vida #2 (API 42-233-31499) is a well in Hutchinson County operated by Helton Pat A. & Alberta, completed April 12, 1983 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 22, 1982, permitted to 3,400 ft.
It was permitted by Arapahoe Prod. CO. and has since transferred to Helton Pat A. & Alberta on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 8.33K barrels of oil and 42.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
