West Ranch -A- #35 (API 42-239-02390) is a plugged well in Jackson County, plugged May 27, 2025, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1981 and 2005, permitted to 6,320 ft.
It was permitted by Vintage Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Catahoula, Frio, West Ranch (41-A), West Ranch (Greta).
Its 2 leases have reported 6.14M barrels of oil and 5.82M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 288 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
