WELL · 42-237-32484 · DISTRICT 9
Roper A. #1
Jack County · Rusmag field · Vertical
Roper A. #1 (API 42-237-32484) is a well in Jack County operated by Pursley John, completed August 10, 1979.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 29, 1978, permitted to 6,400 ft.
It was permitted by Natural Energy Production CO. and has since transferred to Pursley John on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 39.8K barrels of oil and 245K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
