Young Stella GU A #7 (API 42-497-34070) is a well in Wise County operated by Bkv Barnett LLC, completed December 4, 1997 and listed as swr-10-well on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 1997, permitted to 7,075 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 Atoka, Barnett, Barnet Shale.

Its 2 leases have reported 5.32K barrels of oil and 943K mcf of gas since August 1996, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
