Young County · Young County Regular field · Vertical
Bennett #2 (API 42-503-37055) is a plugged well in Young County, plugged January 19, 2022, last operated by Ray Herring Operating CO. LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 15, 1983, permitted to 4,400 ft.
It was permitted by Herring, Ray and has since transferred to Ray Herring Operating CO. LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Strawn.
Its lease has reported 107K barrels of oil and 55.7K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
