Zapata County · Jennings Ranch (Lobo Cons.) field · Producing · Directional
Laurel Mineral Estate #17 (API 42-505-35541) is a well in Zapata County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed July 16, 2007 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 21, 2006, permitted to 11,875 ft.
It was permitted by Conocophillips Company and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Wilcox, Perdido, Base Lowr Wilcox, Base Lwr Wilcox.
Its 2 leases have reported 7.9K barrels of oil and 1.35M mcf of gas since January 2007, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Dec 9, 2009. Cased hole. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
