Smith Lester #7SS (API 42-237-34834) is a plugged well in Jack County, plugged August 27, 2020, last operated by W T X Capital Investments LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1982 and 1995, permitted to 500 ft.
It was permitted by Aruba Petroleum, Ltd. and has since transferred to W T X Capital Investments LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Gunsight.
Its 2 leases have reported 30.1K barrels of oil and 44 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
