Welder Minnie S. #12 (API 42-409-01649) is a plugged well in San Patricio County, plugged May 5, 2020, last operated by Goldking Minerals Mgmt L.L.C..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 8, 1980, permitted to 9,000 ft.

It was permitted by Superior Oil Company, The and has since transferred to Goldking Minerals Mgmt L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 3 leases have reported 3.39M barrels of oil and 7.56M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 166 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.
