Bailey James JR. #40 (API 42-325-33520) is a plugged well in Medina County, plugged May 14, 1992, last operated by Calfas Cattle & Oil LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 7, 1989, permitted to 550 ft.

It was permitted by Jay-Dee Operating Company and has since transferred to Calfas Cattle & Oil LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Escondido.

Its lease has reported 25K barrels of oil and 215 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 36 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.
