Andrews County · Fuhrman-Mascho field · Producing · Vertical
University 48b #8 (API 42-003-45879) is a well in Andrews County operated by Montare Operating Ltd., completed April 6, 2014 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 18, 2014, permitted to 4,952 ft.
It was permitted by Sandridge Expl. And Prod., LLC and has since transferred to Montare Operating Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Queen, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 24K barrels of oil and 10.1K mcf of gas since March 2010, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
