Slick T.B. Estate A #153
Starr County · Rincon (Black Widow) field · Vertical
Slick T.B. Estate A #153 (API 42-427-31228) is a plugged well in Starr County, plugged May 26, 2011, last operated by Forest Oil Corporation.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1978 and 1995, permitted to 3,900 ft.
It was permitted by Conoco Inc. and has since transferred to Forest Oil Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its 2 leases have reported 145K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Conoco Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
