Walter Company #1WD (API 42-245-31848) is a plugged well in Jefferson County, plugged April 7, 2010, last operated by Miocene Oil & Gas Ltd..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 23, 1985, permitted to 2,800 ft.
It was permitted by Petrus Operating CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Miocene Oil & Gas Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 8.63K barrels of oil and 19 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Petrus Operating Co., Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
