Sterling D Fee #12 (API 42-431-32677) is a plugged well in Sterling County, plugged April 6, 2016, last operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1993 and 2006, permitted to 8,090 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 3 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Cisco, Canyon.
Its 3 leases have reported 117K barrels of oil and 2.07M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
