Wilson L. B. GU #1 (API 42-497-33080) is a horizontal well in Wise County operated by Bkv Barnett LLC, completed June 8, 1998 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 1985 and 1998, permitted to 8,628 ft.

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

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Caddo, Atoka, Barnett.

Its 2 leases have reported 3.69K barrels of oil and 1.72M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. 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.
