Walser S. J. #4 (API 42-253-31490) is a well in Jones County operated by Beasley Well Service Inc., completed January 10, 2002 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 4, 1980, permitted to 2,400 ft.
It was permitted by Nichols Brothers and has since transferred to Beasley Well Service Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Saddle Creek, U Hope, L Hope.
Its lease has reported 6.54K barrels of oil and 173 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.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 18K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through October 2025.
