Flores L. G. #17 (API 42-505-33206) is a well in Zapata County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed December 22, 1994 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2002.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1994 and 1995, permitted to 9,100 ft.

It was permitted by Transtexas Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including T/Wilcox, B/Wilcox.

Its 2 leases have reported 570 barrels of oil and 113K mcf of gas since August 1994, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
