Gutierrez J.M. C #2
Zapata County · Cinco de Mayo (Consolidated) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Gutierrez J.M. C #2 (API 42-505-32915) is a well in Zapata County operated by Varas Energy Operating Company, completed October 13, 1994 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2012.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 1994, permitted to 6,600 ft.
It was permitted by Enron Oil & Gas Company and has since transferred to Varas Energy Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Queen City, Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.63K barrels of oil and 1.48M 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.
