Cooper J. E. #2 (API 42-475-00836) is a plugged well in Ward County, plugged April 10, 2003, last operated by R. W. S. Oil CO..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 19, 1978, permitted to 3,400 ft.

It was permitted by Herd, Larry G. and has since transferred to R. W. S. Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers.

Its lease has reported 2.09K barrels of oil and 66 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The lease carries 2 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.
