Sauder J. M. A. #C 1 (API 42-497-34364) is a well in Wise County operated by Bkv Barnett LLC, completed March 8, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1999 and 2001, permitted to 6,600 ft.
It was permitted by Chief Oil & Gas LLC and has since transferred to Bkv Barnett LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Caddo, Pregnant Shale, Bend.
Its 2 leases have reported 212 barrels of oil and 198K mcf of gas since October 1999, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
