Barnes Estate #2M (API 42-479-34203) is a plugged well in Webb County, plugged October 27, 2011, last operated by L.T.D. Explorations Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 17, 1985, permitted to 5,800 ft.

It was permitted by Phoenix Fund, Inc. and has since transferred to L.T.D. Explorations Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Wilcox.

Its lease has reported 45.3K barrels of oil and 24.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 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.
