Wristen Bros. #12 (API 42-475-01397) is a plugged well in Ward County, plugged November 23, 2021, last operated by Walsh & Watts Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 29, 1984, permitted to 2,560 ft.
It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Walsh & Watts Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 220K barrels of oil and 100K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2023. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
