Shackelford County · Shackelford County Regular field · Shut IN · Vertical
Shelton & Pippen #16WI (API 42-417-34739) is a well in Shackelford County operated by Bacon Energy, completed March 1, 1983 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 13, 1982, permitted to 650 ft.
It was permitted by Mcwhorter, Ralph and has since transferred to Bacon Energy on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 6.15K barrels of oil and 16.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 13 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
