McCabe V. T. #48
Mitchell County · Jameson N. (Ellen) field · Vertical
Mccabe V. T. #48 (API 42-335-32533) is a well in Mitchell County operated by Merit Energy Company, completed June 1, 1983.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1983 and 2003, permitted to 7,400 ft.
It was permitted by Manzanita Corporation and has since transferred to Merit Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Strawn, Odom, Caddo, Ellen.
Its 3 leases have reported 90.9K barrels of oil and 328K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
