Arco-Hooks Unit #1 (API 42-457-30091) is a plugged well in Tyler County, plugged May 13, 2009, last operated by Prudential Drilling Company.
The RRC has issued 5 drilling permits between 1979 and 2003, permitted to 6,081 ft.
It was permitted by Premium Exploration Company and has since transferred to Prudential Drilling Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Fw Sand & Clay, Sand & Shale, Shale & Sand.
Its 5 leases have reported 42.9K barrels of oil and 195K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
