Starr County · Rincon (Vicksburg Cons.) field  · Directional

Degarcia-Champion Unit #1 (API 42-427-33580) is a plugged well in Starr County, plugged May 1, 2008, last operated by Kerr-Mcgee Oil & Gas Onshore LP.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 28, 2003, permitted to 8,000 ft.

It was permitted by Kerr-Mcgee Oil & Gas Onshore LLC and has since transferred to Kerr-Mcgee Oil & Gas Onshore LP on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Vicksburg.

Its 2 leases have reported 2.87K barrels of oil and 91.1K mcf of gas since May 2003, last reporting in April 2008. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
