Jefferson County · Spindletop field · Producing · Vertical
Mcfaddin W.P.H. #269 (API 42-245-31697) is a well in Jefferson County operated by Kingwood Exploration LLC, completed August 2, 1983 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits in 1983, permitted to 4,500 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Kingwood Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 496K barrels of oil and 46.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
