Maddox J. W. #4 #1 A (API 42-337-05013) is a permitted well in Montague County filed by Muenster Drilling CO. Inc.; no completion report is on file yet.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 14, 2003, permitted to 1,202 ft.

It was permitted by Muenster Drilling CO. Inc. and has since transferred to Nortex Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Gas Sand, Cisco, Cowen.

Its lease has reported 109K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 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.
