Pena Helen L. #1 (API 42-479-33116) is a well in Webb County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed May 4, 2001 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in July 1, 2021.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1981 and 2001, permitted to 9,142 ft.

It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Upr Wilcox, Lwr Middle Wilcox, Lwr Wilcoxunconformity.

Its 3 leases have reported 4.13K barrels of oil and 1.36M mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 3 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.
