Vaquillas Ranch CO. Ltd #41 (API 42-479-35367) 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 3 drilling permits between 1991 and 1997, permitted to 10,055 ft.

It was permitted by Conoco Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Queen City, Wilcox, Lwr Cz Wilcox, Lwr. Cz. Wilcox.

Its 3 leases have reported 59.5K barrels of oil and 3.21M 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.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
