Smith Unit #1 (API 42-423-31155) is a well in Smith County operated by Key Production Company Inc., completed August 12, 1988.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued July 21, 1988, permitted to 7,000 ft.
It was permitted by Palrich Oil Corporation and has since transferred to Key Production Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Woodbine, Goodland, Paluxy.
Its 2 leases have reported 277K barrels of oil and 134K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
