Wichita County · Wichita County Regular field · Shut IN · Vertical
Blair A. E. #8 (API 42-485-36117) is a well in Wichita County operated by Syntax Energy Corporation, completed March 1, 1980 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 17, 1980, permitted to 1,350 ft.
It was permitted by Mckee, Robert L. and has since transferred to Syntax Energy Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 4.13K barrels of oil and 14 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by McKee, Robert L.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
