Starr County · Bob West (L-12 13 14 15) field · SWR-10-Well · Directional
USA #3014 (API 42-427-34321) is a well in Starr County operated by Merit Energy Company, completed November 19, 2008 and listed as swr-10-well on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 26, 2008, permitted to 11,400 ft.
It was permitted by El Paso E & P Company, L. P. and has since transferred to Merit Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 20 barrels of oil and 1.15M mcf of gas since November 2008, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
