Wichita County · Wichita County Regular field · Vertical
Second Bywaters #229 (API 42-485-34620) is a plugged well in Wichita County, plugged July 20, 2023, last operated by Waggoner Operating L.L.C..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 7, 1977, permitted to 2,000 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Waggoner Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Cisco.
Its lease has reported 1.34M barrels of oil and 221K mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 156 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.

Waggoner Operating L.L.C.'s other wells filed under this lease name in Wichita County, newest permit first. The RRC gives a gas well its own lease number, so the name is what joins the wells of a unit.

Operator on the lease's P-4
Each operator named on the P-4 filings for this well's lease (a gas well is its own lease), from the date its filing took effect. The P-4 is filed by lease, so a date before the well was drilled is the lease's.
