Arco Fee -B- #4 (API 42-241-30307) is a well in Jasper County operated by Paleo Oil Company LLC, completed December 18, 1978 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 10, 1978, permitted to 10,650 ft.
It was permitted by Scates Exploration CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Paleo Oil Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 36.9K barrels of oil and 84.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
