Jones John G. 818 #12 (API 42-307-30735) is a plugged well in Mcculloch County, plugged March 24, 2008, last operated by R & D Operating Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 12, 1984, permitted to 950 ft.
It was permitted by Ellis & Young and has since transferred to R & D Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Marble Falls.
Its 2 leases have reported 188 barrels of oil and 4.04K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
