West Ranch -A- #388 (API 42-239-02735) is a plugged well in Jackson County, plugged January 19, 2017, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 25, 1990, permitted to 5,852 ft.

It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Its 4 leases have reported 17.2M barrels of oil and 8.4M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 688 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
