Fox Unit #1RE
Lee County · Giddings (Buda) field · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Fox Unit #1RE (API 42-287-30111) is a horizontal well in Lee County operated by Alcorn C. W. JR., completed June 1, 1977.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1977 and 1996, permitted to 8,700 ft.
It was permitted by Union Pacific Austin Chalk CO. and has since transferred to Alcorn C. W. JR. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 110K barrels of oil and 793K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
