Rusk County · East Texas field · Producing · Vertical
Alford E. B. -A- #1-R (API 42-401-30726) is a well in Rusk County operated by Linder John Operating CO. LLC, completed April 10, 1979 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 19, 1978, permitted to 3,700 ft.
It was permitted by Malernee Oil Company and has since transferred to Linder John Operating CO. LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Woodbine.
Its lease has reported 93.6K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
