Covington-Brown #2 (API 42-433-31443) is a plugged well in Stonewall County, plugged August 30, 1999, last operated by Ridglea Energy I LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 13, 1982, permitted to 6,200 ft.

It was permitted by Markay Oil & Gas Company and has since transferred to Ridglea Energy I LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 18.6K barrels of oil and 469 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
