Watkins #1
Hutchinson County · Panhandle Hutchinson County Fld. field · Vertical
Watkins #1 (API 42-233-31847) is a plugged well in Hutchinson County, plugged May 17, 1996, last operated by Snw Operating Company.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits in 1984, permitted to 3,800 ft.
It was permitted by W. B. D. Oil & Gas Company and has since transferred to Snw Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Brown Dolomite.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.7K barrels of oil and 170K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2013. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
