Jack County · Jack County Regular field · Producing · Vertical
Ellis J. M. #31 (API 42-237-35156) is a well in Jack County operated by W & W Production LLC, completed September 1, 1983 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 11, 1983, permitted to 500 ft.
It was permitted by Jackson, D. L., & Son and has since transferred to W & W Production LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 10K barrels of oil and 108 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
