Pierce Estales #C176
Wharton County · Magnet Withers (M-8) field · Vertical
Pierce Estales #C176 (API 42-481-30437) is a well in Wharton County operated by Texaco Inc., completed July 1, 1973.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 19, 2002, permitted to 5,712 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Texaco Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 4.66M barrels of oil and 4.47M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 147 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
