Andrews County · Goldsmith N. (San Andres Con.) field · Vertical
University #4 (API 42-003-01828) is a well in Andrews County operated by Octane Energy Operating LLC, completed September 8, 1992.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 2018, permitted to 9,000 ft.
It was permitted by Fivestones Energy LLC and has since transferred to Octane Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including San Andres, Wichita-Albany.
Its 3 leases have reported 213K barrels of oil and 555K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
