Andrews County · Emma field · Vertical
Cowden Emma #96 (API 42-003-32815) is a plugged well in Andrews County, plugged December 22, 2023, last operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 11, 1981, permitted to 4,400 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 114K barrels of oil and 5.56K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 44 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
