Old Ocean Unit #54 SWD (API 42-321-00762) is a well in Matagorda County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed March 9, 1981.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 17, 1981, permitted to 10,271 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 7.96K barrels of oil and 222K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 32 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
