Mertins K. #24 (API 42-485-43449) is a plugged well in Wichita County, plugged August 7, 2014, last operated by G D Energy Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 5, 1999, permitted to 990 ft.
It was permitted by Field Production Company and has since transferred to G D Energy Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Cisco.
Its lease has reported 18.9K barrels of oil since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
