King J. H. #8 (API 42-325-33636) is a plugged well in Medina County, plugged December 28, 2011, last operated by Rlu Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued September 23, 2008, permitted to 980 ft.

It was permitted by Rlu Oil & Gas, Inc. and has since transferred to Rlu Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Escondido, Olmos.

Its lease has reported 7.57K barrels of oil and 218 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
