Young County · Young County Regular field · Shut IN · Vertical
Benson-Hays #2 (API 42-503-41808) is a well in Young County operated by Dick Lindsay Oil Company Inc., completed April 4, 2011 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 18, 2011, permitted to 1,000 ft.
It was permitted by Lindsay, Dick 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 16.5K barrels of oil since March 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Lindsay, Dick; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
