Talbert Fay #1 (API 42-355-32422) is a plugged well in Nueces County, plugged September 30, 2015, last operated by Western Gulf Oil & Gas LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 18, 1985, permitted to 11,300 ft.
It was permitted by Sabine Corporation and has since transferred to Western Gulf Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 16.3K barrels of oil and 564K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2017. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
