Jones County · Jones County Regular field · Vertical
Bitter Creek Unit #2R (API 42-253-34400) is a plugged well in Jones County, plugged October 7, 1998, last operated by Bullet Development LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued June 6, 1997, permitted to 4,500 ft.
It was permitted by Augusta Oil & Gas and has since transferred to Bullet Development LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Canyon.
Its lease has reported 40K barrels of oil and 408 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 13 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
