Eloy #1
Starr County · Kelsey South (5730) field · Vertical
Eloy #1 (API 42-427-31408) is a well in Starr County operated by Tepee Petroleum CO. Inc., completed May 10, 1980.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 19, 1980, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Republic Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Tepee Petroleum CO. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 65.5K barrels of oil and 123K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
