Escobas -B-E- Unit #1715 (API 42-505-32091) is a plugged well in Zapata County, plugged July 21, 2006, last operated by Energy 2000 Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 14, 1985, permitted to 1,350 ft.

It was permitted by Escobas Oil Company and has since transferred to Energy 2000 Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Mirando Sand.

Its lease has reported 29.8K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 29 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
