Blackburn #9 (API 42-417-35071) is a plugged well in Shackelford County, plugged February 8, 2017, last operated by Van Operating Ltd..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1984, permitted to 4,600 ft.

It was permitted by Jones CO. and has since transferred to Van Operating Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including T/Harry Key, T/Strawn Ls., B/Gardner Sand, T/Caddo.

Its lease has reported 85.9K barrels of oil and 74.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 13 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.
