Young County · Young County Regular field · Vertical
Wickham-Weems -A- #8 (API 42-503-37181) is a well in Young County operated by Ritter Laber & Associates Inc., completed November 25, 1985.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 21, 1983, permitted to 1,500 ft.
It was permitted by 5-L Oil Company and has since transferred to Ritter Laber & Associates Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Gunsight.
Its 2 leases have reported 12.9K barrels of oil and 34 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 940 barrels injected in the 12 months reported through November 2025.
