King Ranch Stratton #P259 (API 42-273-31207) is a plugged well in Kleberg County, plugged May 8, 2006, last operated by Exxon Mobil Corporation.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1977 and 1985, permitted to 7,500 ft.

It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Exxon Mobil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 27.8K barrels of oil and 193K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2025. The leases carry 23 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
