High Island 24l SL 59455 #9 (API 42-708-30316) is a horizontal well in High IS-LB County operated by Jefferson Block 24 Oil & Gas LLC, completed May 2, 2009.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1988 and 1997, permitted to 11,650 ft.
It was permitted by Vastar Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Jefferson Block 24 Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including G.H., Gp Sand, Hc Sand, Hf Sand.
Its 7 leases have reported 164K barrels of oil and 7.57M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
