Leonardo #21 (API 42-505-34134) is a well in Zapata County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed February 18, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued May 8, 2000, permitted to 9,194 ft.
It was permitted by Houston Exploration Company, The and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
