Texaco 23a #2 (API 42-461-32957) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged May 30, 2025, last operated by Civitas Permian Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 18, 1989, permitted to 9,100 ft.

It was permitted by Hanley Petroleum Inc. and has since transferred to Civitas Permian Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean.

Its lease has reported 91.8K barrels of oil and 580K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in February 2025. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
