Wlp #40 (API 42-391-32569) is a well in Refugio County operated by T-C Oil Company LLC, completed March 12, 2014 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 2, 2004, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Gilster, Ralph R. Iii and has since transferred to T-C Oil Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Lagarto, Miocene (undifferentiated), Catahoula, Greta.
Its lease has reported 9.17M barrels of oil and 115M mcf of gas since January 2001, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 105 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
