King Ranch Alazan #246
Kleberg County · Alazan North (Frio Cons.) field · Vertical
King Ranch Alazan #246 (API 42-273-30089) is a plugged well in Kleberg County, plugged August 5, 2013, last operated by Eog Resources Inc..
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1979 and 1985, permitted to 7,970 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Eog Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 596K barrels of oil and 738K mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 170 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Exxon Corp.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
