Southwest Andrews Unit #9 (API 42-003-37555) is a well in Andrews County operated by Morningstar Operating LLC, completed September 24, 2012 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2000.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 28, 1994, permitted to 9,820 ft.

It was permitted by Union Oil Company Of California and has since transferred to Morningstar Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian, Strawn, Atoka.

Its 3 leases have reported 2.62M barrels of oil and 4.14M mcf of gas since December 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 45 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
