Watts #1
Jones County · Abkirk (Tannehill) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Watts #1 (API 42-253-35206) is a well in Jones County operated by D.J. & T. Energy, completed August 9, 2011 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 23, 2011, permitted to 1,999 ft.
It was permitted by Thompson, Richard W. Inc. and has since transferred to D.J. & T. Energy on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Tannehill.
Its lease has reported 1.49K barrels of oil and 530 mcf of gas since August 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
