Moss-Malone #7 (API 42-313-30467) is a plugged well in Madison County, plugged March 15, 2016, last operated by Contango Resources LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1984, permitted to 9,800 ft.

It was permitted by Marshall Expl. Inc. and has since transferred to Contango Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including T/Austin Chalk, B/Austin Chalk, T/Sub-Clarksville, T/Lewisville.

Its lease has reported 19.6K barrels of oil and 208K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2022. The lease carries 3 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.
