Hancock R.H. #1 (API 42-481-31683) is a plugged well in Wharton County, plugged September 20, 2004, last operated by Samson Lone Star LP.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 3, 1978, permitted to 6,750 ft.
It was permitted by Norris Petroleum Consultants Inc and has since transferred to Samson Lone Star LP on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.74K barrels of oil and 5.54K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in October 2004. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
