Wright Unit #720 AW (API 42-079-31965) is a well in Cochran County operated by Extex Operating Company, completed August 10, 1984 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 11, 1984, 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.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 1.35M barrels of oil and 263K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 111 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
