Zapata County · Bob West North (LZ-5) field · Producing · Directional
Palmrya #16 (API 42-505-34578) is a well in Zapata County operated by Beehive Operating LLC, completed September 20, 2002 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 2, 2002, permitted to 14,250 ft.
It was permitted by El Paso Production Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Beehive Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Lz-1, Lz-5, L-1, L-10.
Its 2 leases have reported 31 barrels of oil and 695K mcf of gas since September 2002, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
