Wood County · Deu Pree (Woodbine) field · Vertical
Byers Heirs #2 (API 42-499-30952) is a plugged well in Wood County, plugged March 13, 1997, last operated by Sims Jim.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1981 and 2017, permitted to 6,500 ft.
It was permitted by Wtxr Operating (Texas), Inc. and has since transferred to Sims Jim on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Nacotach, Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Sub-Clarksville.
Its 2 leases have reported 10 barrels of oil and 5 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Wtxr Operating (Texas), Inc.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
