Jackson County · West Ranch (Ward) field · Vertical
West Ranch -A- #211 (API 42-239-02566) is a plugged well in Jackson County, plugged November 1, 2016, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 15, 1990, permitted to 6,208 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.27M barrels of oil and 7.71M mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 93 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
