Roach 50 #2 (API 42-413-31696) is a well in Schleicher County operated by Rolling Hills Oil & Gas Inc, completed March 19, 1989 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 28, 1988, permitted to 6,800 ft.
It was permitted by Questa Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Rolling Hills Oil & Gas Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Clear Fork, Canyon.
Its lease has reported 101K barrels of oil and 1.26M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
