Whitehurst #2H (API 42-311-34324) is a horizontal well in Mcmullen County operated by Varas Energy Operating Company, completed January 30, 2012 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 8, 2010, permitted to 11,500 ft.

It was permitted by Swift Energy Operating, LLC and has since transferred to Varas Energy Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Midway, Escondido, Olmos.

Its lease has reported 615K barrels of oil and 4.93M mcf of gas since November 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
