Zapata County · Munoz (Lobo) field · Producing · Vertical
Bustamante Gas Unit 1 #2 (API 42-505-32242) is a well in Zapata County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed April 1, 1997 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2017.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 17, 1986, permitted to 14,200 ft.
It was permitted by Transamerican Natural Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen City, Wilcox, Will Pt., Wills Point.
Its 2 leases have reported 46 barrels of oil and 661K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
