Murch B. L. #13 (API 42-427-33550) is a well in Starr County operated by Faulconer Energy LLC, completed April 22, 2003 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 29, 2002, permitted to 6,000 ft.
It was permitted by Headington Oil Company, L.P. and has since transferred to Faulconer Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 101K barrels of oil and 253K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
