Waddell TR A #344 (API 42-103-01811) is a well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed October 15, 2025 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2020.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 6, 2012, permitted to 6,132 ft.

It was permitted by Burlington Res O & G CO-Midland and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 12 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Grayburg, San Andres.

Its 2 leases have reported 6.79M barrels of oil and 31.1M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 278 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
