Andrews County · Block a-34 (San Andres) field · Producing · Vertical
East John Fisher #4 (API 42-003-45365) is a well in Andrews County operated by Vin Fisher Operating Inc., completed July 3, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 10, 2013, permitted to 4,988 ft.
It was permitted by Ring Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Vin Fisher Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Grayburg, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 284K barrels of oil and 79.7K mcf of gas since June 2013, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 32 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 26, 2016. Density, Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
