Echols #4 (API 42-429-36551) is a well in Stephens County operated by Echols Oil Company L.L.C., completed February 26, 2010 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 9, 2009, permitted to 4,800 ft.
It was permitted by Echols Oil Company and has since transferred to Echols Oil Company L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Caddo, Duffer, Barnett.
Its lease has reported 17.3K barrels of oil and 196K mcf of gas since January 2009, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
