Shay B #2 (API 42-391-32186) is a plugged well in Refugio County, plugged July 18, 2023, last operated by Charro Operating L.L.C..

The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended once) between 1997 and 2015, permitted to 6,500 ft.

It was permitted by Hilcorp Energy Company and has since transferred to Charro Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Catahoula, Cataoula, Anahuac, Greta.

Its 4 leases have reported 1.6K barrels of oil and 945K mcf of gas since January 1998, last reporting in July 2023. 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.
