Wharton County · Magnet Withers (Miocene Upper) field · Vertical
Pierce Estates #B109H (API 42-481-02849) is a plugged well in Wharton County, plugged May 13, 2004, last operated by Apache Corporation.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1978 and 1980, permitted to 7,375 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 19.4K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
