Welder Minnie S. #86 (API 42-409-32901) is a well in San Patricio County operated by Goldking Minerals Mgmt L.L.C., completed August 1, 2018 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in April 1, 2020.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 25, 2008, permitted to 8,716 ft.

It was permitted by Abraxas Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Goldking Minerals Mgmt L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Greta, Sinton, Top Sinton, Frio.

Its lease has reported 2.66M barrels of oil and 5.72M mcf of gas since September 1996, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 110 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.

Well logs

1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Mar 11, 2013. Density, Neutron, Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
