Webb County · Vaquillas Ranch (Lobo Cons.) field · Producing · Vertical
Hirsch #2 (API 42-479-34071) is a well in Webb County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed March 1, 1998 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 21, 1984, permitted to 11,290 ft.
It was permitted by Transamerican Natural Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yegua, Queen City, Wilcox, Wills Point.
Its 2 leases have reported 4.05K barrels of oil and 355K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
