Powell John A. #2 (API 42-327-31117) is a well in Menard County operated by Geosurveys Inc., completed July 2, 2015 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 2, 2011, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Nordan Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Geosurveys Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Cisco, B/Home Ck, B/Capps.
Its lease has reported 199K barrels of oil since February 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 21.7K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through April 2026.
