Thurston Dean #9 (API 42-313-30637) is a plugged well in Madison County, plugged September 25, 1990, last operated by Ocean Energy Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 9, 1986, permitted to 3,000 ft.

It was permitted by Parten, J. R. and has since transferred to Ocean Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yegua, Sparta, Queen City, Carrizo.

Its lease has reported 21K barrels of oil and 6.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in December 2002. The lease carries 4 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.
