Andrews County · Fullerton (San Andres) field · Vertical
Lowe Bitler Unit #7 (API 42-003-10870) is a plugged well in Andrews County, plugged September 19, 2002, last operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 28, 1994, permitted to 4,700 ft.
It was permitted by Maynard Oil CO. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.95M barrels of oil and 318K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 53 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
