Deason A. J. #4 (API 42-401-30929) is a well in Rusk County operated by Basa Resources Inc., completed January 14, 1981 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 5, 1980, permitted to 3,716 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Oil Company and has since transferred to Basa Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 27.8K barrels of oil and 7.73K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
