Earnest W. A. -A- #30-2 (API 42-507-30882) is a plugged well in Zavala County, plugged March 8, 2022, last operated by Citation Oil & Gas Corp..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 18, 1977, permitted to 6,600 ft.

It was permitted by Ladd Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Citation Oil & Gas Corp. on the wellbore schedule.

Its 2 leases have reported 364K barrels of oil and 726K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
