Pierce Estates #C234
Wharton County · Magnet Withers (Miocene Upper) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Pierce Estates #C234 (API 42-481-34506) is a well in Wharton County operated by Remora Management LLC, completed March 8, 2011 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in July 1, 2015.
The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended once) between 2003 and 2011, permitted to 7,200 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Remora Management LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including 5500 Sand, F 17.
Its 4 leases have reported 4.68M barrels of oil and 4.52M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 149 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
