Fant Ranch Unit #8 2A (API 42-275-31344) is a plugged well in Knox County, plugged December 18, 2003, last operated by Tree Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1992, permitted to 6,300 ft.
It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Tree Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Swastika Sand, Congl. Lo., Congl Lo.
Its 2 leases have reported 539K barrels of oil and 41.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 54 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
