Wichita County · Wichita County Regular field · Shut IN · Vertical
Kempner Lee #39 (API 42-485-43536) is a well in Wichita County operated by Kampresco Energy LLC, completed August 3, 2000 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 14, 2000, permitted to 1,999 ft.
It was permitted by Vanek, R. J. and has since transferred to Kampresco Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Cisco.
Its lease has reported 16.9K barrels of oil and 256 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Vanek, R. J.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
