Bishop #1B (API 42-485-42356) is a plugged well in Wichita County, plugged May 26, 2004, last operated by Birge Oil CO..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 9, 1991, permitted to 1,990 ft.
It was permitted by Diamond Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Birge Oil CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 471 barrels of oil and 12 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2008. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
