Marketwired
West Texas Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: WTXR), a
Texas-based independent oil and gas company, today announced an
update on its oil and gas prospect in Eastland County, Texas.
The Company owns a 31.25% working interest in an exploratory oil
and gas drilling prospect covering 120 acres in Eastland County,
Texas. The Eastland County prospect includes two exploratory wells,
known as Rutherford #1 and C.M. Knott #1, both of which had been
operating at a minimum level required to maintain the lease rights.
The operator re-entered the Rutherford #1 well and conducted
drilling and casing activities. Subsequently, GasFrac, Inc., of
Kilgore, Texas, conducted the fracture stimulation of the
Rutherford #1. After running off the liquefied gas used to conduct
the fracture stimulation and an evaluation by the operator, the
Rutherford #1 was placed on a pump on February 15, 2013 and has
commenced production of oil and natural gas. To date, the
Rutherford #1 has initial production of approximately 9 BBLS of oil
and 28 MCF of natural gas per day.
According to Stephen Jones, CEO of West Texas Resources, "We are
pleased with the initial production to date. Although the initial
results are not sufficient to form a long-term view on the expected
production, it appears that the Rutherford #1 will be a profitable
well for our company."
