Waddell TR B #97 (API 42-103-02389) is a well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed March 9, 2007 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2025.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 12, 2007, permitted to 4,720 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 7 formation tops, including Rustler, Mcelroy, San Andres, San Sandres.

Its 2 leases have reported 18.7M barrels of oil and 79.3M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 562 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.
