Waddell TR I #843 (API 42-103-02283) is a well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed August 21, 2001 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 24, 2001, permitted to 5,645 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 one formation top, including Ellenburger.

Its 2 leases have reported 208K barrels of oil and 1.56M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 20 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.
