De Lopez C. V. -A- #8 (API 42-427-31994) is a well in Starr County operated by L & B Oil And Gas Equipment LLC, completed March 4, 1985 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 8, 1985, permitted to 6,300 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Corpus and has since transferred to L & B Oil And Gas Equipment LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 28.9K barrels of oil and 83.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
