Price Ruth Mary -C- #1
Pecos County · EL Cinco (Wichita Albany Mid.) field · Vertical
Price Ruth Mary -C- #1 (API 42-371-30485) is a well in Pecos County operated by Darkens Oil & Gas Inc., completed December 13, 1984.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 2, 2001, permitted to 5,273 ft.
It was permitted by Mexco Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Darkens Oil & Gas Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 3 leases have reported 34.6K barrels of oil and 714K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Mexco Energy Corporation; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
