Martindale #2 (API 42-283-31000) is a plugged well in La Salle County, plugged May 30, 2008, last operated by Clipper Operating CO. Inc..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1991, permitted to 5,000 ft.

It was permitted by Black Gold Operating CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Clipper Operating CO. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Claiborne, Queen City, Carrizo, Wilcox.

Its 4 leases have reported 992 barrels of oil and 98 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
