Pirtle A. P. A #1 (API 42-401-31629) is a plugged well in Rusk County, plugged July 16, 2008, last operated by O Bar Operating CO. Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 18, 1983, permitted to 8,550 ft.
It was permitted by Leo Energy, Inc. (1983) and has since transferred to O Bar Operating CO. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 480 barrels of oil and 135K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2009. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
