Blake R. S. #23 (API 42-467-30385) is a plugged well in Van Zandt County, plugged February 22, 2013, last operated by Basa Resources Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 18, 1977, permitted to 3,400 ft.

It was permitted by Exxon Corp. and has since transferred to Basa Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Navarro, Pecan Gap, Taylor, Lewisville.

Its lease has reported 1.48M barrels of oil and 797K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
