Good day!

I received a letter from PO&G today stating that they plan to abandon and plug ‘…the Bertha D Young #4, located in Section 49, Block 10, H&GN RR Co Survey, Ward Country, Texas.’

I own land on that section and block but was unaware of any drilling or active wells. I know very little about what this means or what I can infer from the letter. Anyone have any advice or insight?

Kyle, after checking the RR Commission GIS map I find no Block 10 in Ward County…Check your numbers again…and are you sure this is Ward County?

Hey Clint,

Rechecked the numbers…what I typed above is correct based on the letter I received. It looks like the county is a typo on their part since they listed the correct county (Pecos) in the ‘Re:’ sections and listed the incorrect county (Ward) in the body. My land is in Pecos.
