Johnston J. H. #7 (API 42-451-31509) is a well in Tom Green County operated by Gilstrap Joel, completed November 26, 1984 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 13, 1984, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by J. C. Oil CO. and has since transferred to Gilstrap Joel on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including San Andres, Dolomite, Feldman, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 22K barrels of oil and 36 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 36K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through January 2026.
