Pierce Estates #C223
Wharton County · Magnet Withers (Miocene 4000) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Pierce Estates #C223 (API 42-481-33298) is a well in Wharton County operated by Remora Management LLC, completed August 1, 2006 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in August 1, 2012.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1989 and 2006, permitted to 5,650 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), Marginulina 1, Frio.
Its 3 leases have reported 4.66M barrels of oil and 4.32M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 148 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
