Cochran County · Levelland field · Producing · Vertical
Wright Unit #2-4 (API 42-079-31412) is a well in Cochran County operated by Extex Operating Company, completed December 3, 1981 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 1, 1981, permitted to 5,100 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Midland and has since transferred to Extex Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.35M barrels of oil and 263K mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 111 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
