Farris #2 (API 42-499-31833) is a plugged well in Wood County, plugged December 4, 1998, last operated by Fair Oil LC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued September 14, 1993, permitted to 7,500 ft.
It was permitted by Magna Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Fair Oil LC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Woodbine, Buda.
Its lease has reported 16.5K barrels of oil and 412 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in February 1999. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
