Saenz Vicente State -C- #17
Starr County · Strong (4700) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Saenz Vicente State -C- #17 (API 42-427-34771) is a well in Starr County operated by Alpha Oil & Gas LLC, completed July 16, 2018 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 28, 2018, permitted to 5,300 ft.
It was permitted by Valor Energy, LLC and has since transferred to Alpha Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Catahoula, Cook Mountain, Jackson.
Its lease has reported 30.7K barrels of oil and 14.5K mcf of gas since August 2017, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
