Ancell #1S (API 42-487-31255) is a plugged well in Wilbarger County, plugged May 14, 1999, last operated by Swanson Tom.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 16, 1980, permitted to 1,200 ft.
It was permitted by Lunn, Ray and has since transferred to Swanson Tom on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 5.38K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 1999. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
