Mcfaddin State #39 (API 42-245-32856) is a well in Jefferson County operated by Gepard Energy Inc, completed July 23, 2018 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued June 30, 2017, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Oleum Exploration, LLC and has since transferred to Gepard Energy Inc on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 13 formation tops, including G Sand Formation, J Sand Formation, P Sand Formation, Big Hill Salt Dome - Disposal.

Its lease has reported 603K barrels of oil and 284K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
