Wiseman H. W. #17 (API 42-493-31799) is a plugged well in Wilson County, plugged July 17, 2024, last operated by Petrosaurus Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 10, 1985, permitted to 1,550 ft.

It was permitted by Liberty Head Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Petrosaurus Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 4.85K barrels of oil and 93 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
