Estell Mary King #216 (API 42-355-00149) is a well in Nueces County operated by Aransas Operating Company LLC, completed November 21, 2018 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2020.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1979 and 1989, permitted to 6,380 ft.

It was permitted by Kamlok, Inc. and has since transferred to Aransas Operating Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including 5400, 5600 Upper.

Its 2 leases have reported 49.3K barrels of oil and 60.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 27 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.
