Mobil University 4 #1 (API 42-003-38227) is a well in Andrews County operated by Vin Fisher Operating Inc., completed July 19, 1997 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 12, 1997, permitted to 4,700 ft.
It was permitted by Ausland Production Company and has since transferred to Vin Fisher Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 61.3K barrels of oil and 47K mcf of gas since July 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
