Keith & Dowlen #27 (API 42-245-31226) is a plugged well in Jefferson County, plugged February 20, 2017, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1978 and 1997, permitted to 6,200 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 3 leases have reported 434K barrels of oil and 576K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2019. The leases carry 27 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
