Andrews County · Fuhrman-Mascho (Yates) field · Vertical
University KL #1A (API 42-003-38020) is a well in Andrews County operated by Contango Resources LLC, completed November 2, 1996.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1996 and 1999, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Minihan Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Contango Resources LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.6K barrels of oil and 3.48K mcf of gas since July 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
