Pierce Estates #218 (API 42-481-32753) is a well in Wharton County operated by Remora Management LLC, completed December 13, 1984.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 2002, permitted to 5,563 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Remora Management LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Miocene (undifferentiated), Top Of Marg., Frio.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.99M barrels of oil and 1.95M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 45 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
