Dodd Bert #9 (API 42-287-30707) is a horizontal well in Lee County operated by Tex-Lee Operating Company, completed December 22, 1995.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1980 and 1995, permitted to 9,375 ft.
It was permitted by Union Pacific Austin Chalk CO. and has since transferred to Tex-Lee Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 24.9K barrels of oil and 321K 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.
