Sterling County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Producing · Vertical
Sterling J Fee #11 (API 42-431-31714) is a well in Sterling County operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd., completed May 30, 2012 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 2011, permitted to 7,980 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Conger Ss.
Its 4 leases have reported 99.7K barrels of oil and 1.3M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 24 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
