Marg. 1 Gas Unit #37D (API 42-481-03498) is a plugged well in Wharton County, plugged June 13, 2005, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued 5 drilling permits between 1978 and 1986, permitted to 7,500 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Its 7 leases have reported 52.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 7 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.

PDQ LEASE REPORTS · REPORTED THROUGH APR 2026

Texas reports oil by lease, not by well. These are the 7 leases this well is completed on; they carry 7 wells in total, so volumes are shared.Why →
