Buchanan John F. -A- #1 (API 42-507-32411) is a plugged horizontal well in Zavala County, plugged July 22, 1997, last operated by Flint Oak Energy LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 3, 1991, permitted to 10,500 ft.

It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Flint Oak Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Midway, San Miguel, Anacacho, Lower Chalk.

Its lease has reported 852K barrels of oil and 682K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 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.
