University Southern Minerals #8 (API 42-003-39155) is a well in Andrews County operated by Sandridge Expl. And Prod. LLC, completed May 5, 2007.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2003 and 2006, permitted to 7,800 ft.

It was permitted by Minihan Oil & Gas Ltd. and has since transferred to Sandridge Expl. And Prod. LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Tubb.

Its 2 leases have reported 789K barrels of oil and 4.69M mcf of gas since December 2000, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 22 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.
