Katz (Strawn) Unit #30 (API 42-433-32571) is a plugged well in Stonewall County, plugged March 19, 2013, last operated by Atlas Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 5, 1989, permitted to 5,300 ft.

It was permitted by BP Exploration Inc. and has since transferred to Atlas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Strawn, 2nd Sand, 3rd Sand.

Its 3 leases have reported 14M barrels of oil and 30.3M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 313 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
