Smith James K. #22S (API 42-485-35913) is a plugged well in Wichita County, plugged July 27, 2016, last operated by Bucaro Energy LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 5, 1979, permitted to 800 ft.
It was permitted by Smith Production CO. and has since transferred to Bucaro Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 20.8K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 23 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
