Fitzhugh A #2
Jefferson County · Big Hill field · Vertical
Fitzhugh A #2 (API 42-245-31766) is a plugged well in Jefferson County, plugged June 30, 2014, last operated by Unit Petroleum Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 10, 1984, permitted to 6,000 ft.
It was permitted by Penford, Inc. and has since transferred to Unit Petroleum Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Lo. Miocene, Lo. Discorbis, Lower Discorbis.
Its lease has reported 205K barrels of oil and 33 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in September 2018. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
