Ward J. M. -B- #40 (API 42-429-32627) is a well in Stephens County operated by Basa Resources Inc., completed July 29, 1989 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 18, 1980, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Texas Pacific Oil Company, Inc. and has since transferred to Basa Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.13M barrels of oil and 132K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 24 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
