West Ranch 'A' #510 (API 42-239-32131) is a former disposal or injection well in Jackson County, last operated by Meridian Oil Production Inc.; its UIC permit is no longer active.

The RRC has issued 7 drilling permits (amended once) between 1984 and 1994, permitted to 6,100 ft.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Catahoula, Frio, Greta, Glasscock.

Its 4 leases have reported 6M barrels of oil and 6.09M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 290 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
