Foster A #23SD (API 42-407-30696) is a well in San Jacinto County operated by Oretta Holdings LLC, completed May 29, 2012 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 5, 2009, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Famcor Oil, Inc. and has since transferred to Oretta Holdings LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Wilcox.
Its lease has reported 52K barrels of oil and 674K mcf of gas since July 2005, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 108K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through March 2026.
