University 8-4 #8 (API 42-003-42027) is a well in Andrews County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed June 24, 2011 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 15, 2010, permitted to 11,500 ft.

It was permitted by Myco Industries, Inc. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its lease has reported 233K barrels of oil and 548K mcf of gas since September 2009, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 8 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.
