Welder Minnie S. #65
San Patricio County · Portilla (9000 Sand) field · Vertical
Welder Minnie S. #65 (API 42-409-31720) is a well in San Patricio County operated by Superior Oil Company The, completed July 8, 1983.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1983 and 2011, permitted to 11,200 ft.
It was permitted by Abraxas Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Superior Oil Company The on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Vicksburg.
Its 4 leases have reported 2.75M barrels of oil and 6.11M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 122 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Abraxas Petroleum Corporation; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
