WELL · 42-291-32002 · DISTRICT 3
Gulf Chambers Fee #9
Liberty County · Liberty South field · Shut IN · Vertical
Gulf Chambers Fee #9 (API 42-291-32002) is a well in Liberty County operated by Drum Oil & Gas Inc., completed March 4, 1987 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 30, 1987, permitted to 900 ft.
It was permitted by Smart, A. J. and has since transferred to Drum Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 28.5K barrels of oil and 4.97K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
