Rusk County · Pone (Travis Peak) field · Vertical
Brightwell #1 (API 42-401-31984) is a well in Rusk County operated by Ful-Hill Oil & Gas L.L.P., completed May 23, 1996.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1996, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Kepa Energy, L.C. and has since transferred to Ful-Hill Oil & Gas L.L.P. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Pettit, Sligo, Travis Peak, Cotton Valley.
Its 3 leases have reported 48.6K barrels of oil and 111K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
