Jim L. Williams Unit #1 (API 42-315-01157) is a plugged well in Marion County, plugged July 22, 1999, last operated by Fair Oil LC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 9, 1996, permitted to 6,175 ft.
It was permitted by Fair Oil Company and has since transferred to Fair Oil LC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Saratoga, Austin Chalk, Paluxy, Massive Anhydrite (marker).
Its 2 leases have reported 247K barrels of oil and 585K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
