Martinez B #36
Starr County · Rincon N. (Vicksburg 5000) field · Vertical
Martinez B #36 (API 42-427-32261) is a well in Starr County operated by Oxy USA Inc., completed June 27, 1988.
The RRC has issued 6 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1988 and 2005, permitted to 9,000 ft.
It was permitted by Noble Energy Inc and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including F 6, F 6a, F6a, F 6b.
Its 4 leases have reported 21.5K barrels of oil and 154K 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.
