Gap #2 (API 42-461-32279) is a well in Upton County operated by Bustamante Resources LLC, completed December 6, 1984 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 12, 1984, permitted to 3,400 ft.
It was permitted by Purvis, J. H. and has since transferred to Bustamante Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 25.2K barrels of oil and 8.24K 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.
