Stephens County · Little Cedar (Strawn) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Swenson Ranch E #2 (API 42-429-31791) is a well in Stephens County operated by Eastland Operating L.L.C., completed March 22, 1978 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 10, 1978, permitted to 3,100 ft.
It was permitted by Noonan, James M. and has since transferred to Eastland Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 2.5K barrels of oil and 38.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
