King County · Katz field · Vertical
Hardwick G. W. #16 (API 42-269-31774) is a plugged well in King County, plugged May 13, 2004, last operated by Apache Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 18, 1988, permitted to 5,200 ft.
It was permitted by Conoco Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including 4800' Strawn, 5100' Strawn.
Its lease has reported 36.2K barrels of oil and 3.78K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
