Schleicher County · Cody Bell (Canyon) field · Producing · Vertical
Murphy #2 (API 42-413-32179) is a well in Schleicher County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed August 1, 2020 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in April 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 12, 2003, permitted to 6,680 ft.
It was permitted by Txp, Incorporated and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including T/Leonard Lime, T/Wolfcamp Lime, T/Wolfcamp Line, T/Canyon Sand.
Its 2 leases have reported 9.17K barrels of oil and 169K mcf of gas since October 2003, last reporting volume in March 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
