Dearman H. H. #2 (API 42-497-32975) is a plugged well in Wise County, plugged February 27, 2026, last operated by Bkv Barnett LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 1997, permitted to 7,200 ft.

It was permitted by Mitchell Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Bkv Barnett LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Caddo, Pregnant Shale, Preg. Shale, Barnett.

Its 2 leases have reported 952 barrels of oil and 341K mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in July 2023. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.

PDQ LEASE REPORTS · REPORTED THROUGH APR 2026

Texas reports oil by lease, not by well. These are the 2 leases this well is completed on; they carry 2 wells in total, so volumes are shared.Why →
