Gallo Rojo A #8H (API 42-255-36516) is a horizontal well in Karnes County operated by Bpx Operating Company, completed September 4, 2019.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued July 12, 2019, permitted to 11,139 ft.
It was permitted by Bhp Billiton Pet(Txla OP) CO and has since transferred to Bpx Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Wilcox, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford, Carrizo.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.81M barrels of oil and 1.76M mcf of gas since January 2013, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
