Smith-Joplin Unit #1 (API 42-423-31171) is a well in Smith County operated by Key Production Company Inc., completed November 30, 1988.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 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 4 formation tops, including Ft. Worth, Duck Creek Lime, Kiamichi, Paluxy.

Its 2 leases have reported 279K barrels of oil and 120K 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.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 80.7K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through October 2025.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
