Newton County · Bon Weir (10 800) field · Producing · Vertical
Kuhnert #1 (API 42-351-30683) is a well in Newton County operated by Prime Operating Company, completed August 10, 1999 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1997 and 1999, permitted to 11,962 ft.
It was permitted by Pmo and has since transferred to Prime Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Sparta, Wilcox, 10,600' Wilcox, 11,100' Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 236K barrels of oil and 312K mcf of gas since November 1997, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
