Gray James #1 (API 42-351-30786) is a well in Newton County operated by HD Operating CO LLC, completed April 24, 2008 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 2006 and 2009, permitted to 14,000 ft.
It was permitted by Delta Exploration Company, Inc. and has since transferred to HD Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Jackson, Yegua, Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 115K barrels of oil and 205K mcf of gas since September 2006, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
