Lee County · Giddings (Buda) field · Horizontal
Archer Unit #2RE (API 42-287-30192) is a plugged horizontal well in Lee County, plugged April 18, 1983, last operated by Humble Exploration CO. Inc..
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1977 and 2001, permitted to 10,034 ft.
It was permitted by Wcs Oil And Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Humble Exploration CO. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its lease has reported 102K barrels of oil and 1.05M mcf of gas since July 1995, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by WCS Oil and Gas Corporation; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
