Pena Louis -B- #1 (API 42-427-04172) is a plugged well in Starr County, plugged May 23, 1973, last operated by Tenneco Oil CO..

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1979 and 2009, permitted to 5,850 ft.

It was permitted by Reveille Resources and has since transferred to Tenneco Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Sullivan City, W / Sullivan Uppe, Sullivan City, W/ Sullivan Upper, Sullivan City, Sullivan City (Vicksburg).

Its 2 leases have reported 30.6K barrels of oil and 254K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 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.
