Andrews County · Bedford (Fusselman) field · Vertical
Ratliff & Bedford #40R (API 42-003-38478) is a well in Andrews County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed September 20, 2013.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1999 and 2017, permitted to 11,250 ft.
It was permitted by Occidental Permian Ltd. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Wolfcamp, Woodford.
Its 2 leases have reported 6.09M barrels of oil and 6.69M 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.
