Kleberg County · Stratton (Consolidated) field · Vertical
King Ranch Stratton #A 68 (API 42-273-30228) is a plugged well in Kleberg County, plugged September 30, 2010, last operated by Exxon Mobil Corporation.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1984 and 1990, permitted to 7,382 ft.
It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Exxon Mobil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 5 leases have reported 31.3K barrels of oil and 185K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2025. The leases carry 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
