Russell #16 (API 42-327-31092) is a well in Menard County operated by Sawyer Oil & Gas LLC, completed November 20, 2010 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued October 26, 2010, permitted to 4,200 ft.

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

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Tannehill, Flippen Sand, Cook Sand, Cisco.

Its lease has reported 44.3K barrels of oil since May 2009, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 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.
