Benson/Capps A #29 (API 42-503-39494) is a well in Young County operated by Dick Lindsay Oil Company Inc., completed May 15, 1987 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1986 and 1987, permitted to 936 ft.
It was permitted by Craig, Bob and has since transferred to Dick Lindsay Oil Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Gunsight.
Its lease has reported 159K barrels of oil and 176 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
