Braman -C- #31 (API 42-321-00519) is a well in Matagorda County operated by Oak Energy LLC, completed February 12, 1993 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2021.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1988 and 1993, permitted to 8,830 ft.
It was permitted by Hamman Oil & Refg. CO. and has since transferred to Oak Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Frio, Cayce, Talcott -B-, Talcott B.
Its 2 leases have reported 13.1K barrels of oil and 841K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
