High Island Block 55-L #2 (API 42-708-30263) is a plugged well in High IS-LB County, plugged June 21, 2008, last operated by Louisiana Natural Gas E&P CO..
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1980 and 1991, permitted to 8,058 ft.
It was permitted by Offshore Oil & Gas Inc and has since transferred to Louisiana Natural Gas E&P CO. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Discorbis B-4, Discorbis B-5, Discorbis B-6.
Its 3 leases have reported 161K barrels of oil and 1.89M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
