Johnson 40 #2 (API 42-301-30905) is a plugged well in Loving County, plugged September 14, 2017, last operated by Wpx Energy Permian LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1990 and 1995, permitted to 7,800 ft.
It was permitted by Gothic Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Wpx Energy Permian LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Lamar, Ramsey, Olds, Cherry Canyon.
Its 2 leases have reported 130K barrels of oil and 244K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2023. The leases carry 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
