Hester #2
Yoakum County · Wasson field · Vertical
Hester #2 (API 42-501-32601) is a well in Yoakum County operated by Warren American Oil Company, completed June 1, 1984.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 30, 1984, permitted to 5,420 ft.
It was permitted by Dickson Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Warren American Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.2M barrels of oil and 576K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 27K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through September 2025.
