Darlene Unit #2H (API 42-255-31633) is a horizontal well in Karnes County operated by Plains Exploration & Prod. CO., completed June 6, 2010.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 24, 2009, permitted to 15,000 ft.
It was permitted by Hughes, Dan A. Company, L.P. and has since transferred to Plains Exploration & Prod. CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 1.21M barrels of oil and 1.41M mcf of gas since September 2009, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
