Cowan W.T. #1 (API 42-083-31871) is a well in Coleman County operated by Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation, completed January 30, 1980.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1979 and 1998, permitted to 3,300 ft.
It was permitted by Simpson Oil & Land CO. and has since transferred to Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 38.1K barrels of oil and 115K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
