Flores L.G. #15 (API 42-505-33173) is a well in Zapata County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed April 1, 1997 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) in 1994, permitted to 14,500 ft.
It was permitted by Transtexas Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wilcox, Base Wilcos, Wills Point.
Its 2 leases have reported 422 barrels of oil and 1.72M mcf of gas since July 1994, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
