Wise County · Newark East (Barnett Shale) field · Horizontal
Moore #2H (API 42-497-36518) is a horizontal well in Wise County operated by Braden Exploration LLC, completed August 10, 2008.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued April 30, 2008, permitted to 8,500 ft.
It was permitted by Enervest Operating, L.L.C. and has since transferred to Braden Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Marble Falls, Barnett, Forestburg, Viola.
Its 3 leases have reported 14.8K barrels of oil and 579K mcf of gas since July 2008, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
