Foster W. L. Estate #17
Mitchell County · Iatan East Howard field · NO Production · Vertical
Foster W. L. Estate #17 (API 42-335-33037) is a well in Mitchell County operated by Baylor Operating LLC, completed August 11, 1986 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule, shut in April 1, 2021.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 1, 1985, permitted to 3,450 ft.
It was permitted by Ray, D. L. Inc. and has since transferred to Baylor Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen, San Andres, Glorieta, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 63.3K barrels of oil and 65 mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 35 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
