Sterling County · Cope field · Producing · Vertical
Cope Unit #11 (API 42-431-00254) is a well in Sterling County operated by Surge Solutions Inc., completed April 28, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 6, 2001, permitted to 5,210 ft.
It was permitted by Prize Operating Company and has since transferred to Surge Solutions Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.37M barrels of oil and 767K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 50 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
