Ward J. M. -C- #172W (API 42-429-34062) is a plugged well in Stephens County, plugged January 9, 2001, last operated by Basa Resources Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 3, 1984, permitted to 3,400 ft.

It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Abilene and has since transferred to Basa Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Capps, Brannan Bredge, Caddo.

Its lease has reported 3.8M barrels of oil and 521K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 172 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.
