Rogers Billy Neal Gas Unit #1 (API 42-401-31352) is a plugged well in Rusk County, plugged June 9, 2021, last operated by Merit Energy Company.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1981 and 1998, permitted to 8,500 ft.

It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Merit Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Mass. Anhyd., Massive Anhydrite (marker), Rodessa, James Lime.

Its 4 leases have reported 20.6K barrels of oil and 150K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2021. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
