Withers Gertrude #4 (API 42-353-30974) is a plugged well in Nolan County, plugged January 31, 2013, last operated by L.C.S. Production Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 7, 1980, permitted to 6,600 ft.

It was permitted by Sun Texas Company and has since transferred to L.C.S. Production Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Ellenburger.

Its lease has reported 17K barrels of oil and 18.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2013. The lease carries 7 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.
