Shelby County · Stockman (Travis Peak) field · Vertical
Howard A #1 (API 42-419-30721) is a well in Shelby County operated by Kaiser-Francis Oil Company, completed May 10, 2000.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1999 and 2000, permitted to 11,500 ft.
It was permitted by Marathon Oil Company and has since transferred to Kaiser-Francis Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Base Mass Anhy, Base Mass. Anhy., Base Mass Anyd, Jame Lime.
Its 3 leases have reported 5.77K barrels of oil and 1.27M mcf of gas since March 2000, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
