Prugel - Henke #4 (API 42-327-30956) is a well in Menard County operated by Otex LLC, completed February 16, 2004 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 18, 2003, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Daubert Operating. L.L.C. and has since transferred to Otex LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Saddle Creek, Top Crystal Falls, Top Hope Sand, Bunger Lime.
Its lease has reported 34.4K barrels of oil since December 2002, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
