O Connor Thomas B #17 (API 42-391-01829) is a plugged well in Refugio County, plugged August 20, 2018, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 1997, permitted to 6,200 ft.
It was permitted by Quintana Pet. Corp. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Frio, Lagarto, Oakville, Catahoula.
Its 2 leases have reported 75.5K barrels of oil and 440K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2021. The leases carry 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
