Milam County · Minerva-Rockdale field · Vertical
Sanders Farm #7 (API 42-331-31345) is a plugged well in Milam County, plugged January 26, 1998, last operated by Ernest Operating Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 5, 1982, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by Chama Resources and has since transferred to Ernest Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 22.6K barrels of oil and 175 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
