Brown J. C. #8 (API 42-365-33240) is a well in Panola County operated by Xto Energy Inc., completed March 8, 1996 and listed as shut in-multi-compl on the RRC schedule, shut in June 1, 2009.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 12, 1995, permitted to 6,600 ft.

It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including James Lime, Pine Island, Pettit, Travis Peak.

Its 3 leases have reported 19.6K barrels of oil and 1.81M mcf of gas since March 1996, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 4 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.
