Welder Ranch #18D
San Patricio County · Oneil (5300) field · Producing · Vertical
Welder Ranch #18D (API 42-409-32332) is a well in San Patricio County operated by Proline Energy Resources Inc, completed August 9, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in August 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1990 and 2001, permitted to 7,500 ft.
It was permitted by Smith Production Inc. and has since transferred to Proline Energy Resources Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Catahoula, 5500, 6500, 5500 Sand.
Its 3 leases have reported 774 barrels of oil and 297K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
