Franco /Bend/ Cons. NO. 1 #11 (API 42-461-10243) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged July 1, 1996, last operated by Chevron U. S. A. Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 7, 1983, permitted to 10,825 ft.
It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Chevron U. S. A. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Red Bed/Anhy/Salt, Lime/Shale/Chert, Lime/Chert.
Its lease has reported 76 barrels of oil and 26.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
