Benton J #13 (API 42-401-33461) is a well in Rusk County operated by Sydri Operating LLC, completed November 21, 2018 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 2004 and 2018, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Trivium Operating, LLC and has since transferred to Sydri Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Rodessa, BMA, Pettit, Travis Peak.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.66K barrels of oil and 898K mcf of gas since October 2005, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
