Mcwilliams Bros. #2 (API 42-401-33689) is a plugged well in Rusk County, plugged September 26, 2024, last operated by Buffco Production Inc..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 2005 and 2007, permitted to 11,908 ft.

It was permitted by Encana Oil & Gas(USA) Inc. and has since transferred to Buffco Production Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 12 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Buda, Paluxy, Glen Rose.

Its 3 leases have reported 12.2K barrels of oil and 232K mcf of gas since February 2006, last reporting in November 2024. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
