Wilbarger County · Wilbarger County Regular field · Producing · Vertical
Waggoner -J- #16 (API 42-487-32978) is a well in Wilbarger County operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd., completed January 9, 2014 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 6, 2013, permitted to 2,550 ft.
It was permitted by Gen-Sher L.L.P. and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Noble Lime.
Its lease has reported 63.5K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Gen-Sher L.L.P.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
