247 Land CO. #1 (API 42-313-30743) is a plugged horizontal well in Madison County, plugged December 20, 2012, last operated by Enervest Operating L.L.C..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended 3 times) between 1997 and 2005, permitted to 14,697 ft.
It was permitted by Emerald Operating Company, Inc. and has since transferred to Enervest Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wilcox, Austin Chalk, Dexter.
Its 3 leases have reported 44.9K barrels of oil and 34.1K mcf of gas since June 1997, last reporting in March 2013. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
