Hancock Gas Unit #1 (API 42-347-31760) is a plugged well in Nacogdoches County, plugged April 29, 2013, last operated by Chesapeake Operating Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued August 30, 2002, permitted to 9,050 ft.

It was permitted by Brg Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Chesapeake Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Massive Anhydrite (marker), James Lime, Pettit, Travis Peak.

Its 2 leases have reported 862 barrels of oil and 110K mcf of gas since November 2002, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 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.
