Wichita County · Wichita County Regular field · Vertical
Kempner -B- #18 (API 42-485-91639) is a plugged well in Wichita County, plugged April 27, 1994, last operated by Crawford Oil Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 29, 1982, permitted to 800 ft.
It was permitted by Crawford, W.T. JR. and has since transferred to Crawford Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 451 barrels of oil and 13 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 1994. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
