Skelly-Merchant #10 (API 42-233-32215) is a plugged well in Hutchinson County, plugged June 23, 2020, last operated by Petrolia Group L.L.C..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 9, 1985, permitted to 3,150 ft.
It was permitted by North Star Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Petrolia Group L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Red Beds, Glorieta, Brown Dolomite, White Dolomite.
Its lease has reported 11K barrels of oil and 144K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
