Sawyer -A- #2 (API 42-317-32885) is a plugged well in Martin County, plugged August 27, 2001, last operated by Merit Energy Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 10, 1984, permitted to 8,900 ft.

It was permitted by Adobe Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Merit Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its lease has reported 17.8K barrels of oil and 33.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 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.
