Maltsberger #81H
LA Salle County · Eagleville (Eagle Ford-1) field · Horizontal
Maltsberger #81H (API 42-283-37202) is a horizontal well in La Salle County operated by Verdun Oil EF II LLC, completed September 30, 2022.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 16, 2022, permitted to 10,100 ft.
It was permitted by EP Energy E&P Company, LLC and has since transferred to Verdun Oil EF II LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yegua, Sparta, Queen City, Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.51M barrels of oil and 7.94M mcf of gas since December 2010, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 43 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
