Mcfaddin Trust #86 (API 42-245-31686) is a plugged well in Jefferson County, plugged May 6, 2024, last operated by Gepard Energy Inc.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 16, 1983, permitted to 7,000 ft.

It was permitted by Shell Oil Company and has since transferred to Gepard Energy Inc on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).

Its lease has reported 1.84M barrels of oil and 762K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 41 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
