Merrick/Davis #118
Shackelford County · One-Eighteen (Caddo) field · Vertical
Merrick/Davis #118 (API 42-417-37784) is a well in Shackelford County operated by Petex, completed January 30, 1994.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 17, 1993, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Throckmorton Oil, Inc. and has since transferred to Petex on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Caddo.
Its 2 leases have reported 50.2K barrels of oil and 1.19M mcf of gas since January 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
