First American One #8 (API 42-237-35755) is a plugged well in Jack County, plugged April 10, 2006, last operated by Aruba Petroleum Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 30, 1983, permitted to 500 ft.

It was permitted by First American Oil & Gas Inc. and has since transferred to Aruba Petroleum Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Gunsight.

Its lease has reported 2.24K barrels of oil and 46 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The lease carries 11 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
