Sand Hill Tubb Unit #42
Crane County · Sand Hills (Wojcik-McElroy) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Sand Hill Tubb Unit #42 (API 42-103-30279) is a well in Crane County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed October 23, 2004 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in June 1, 2020.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1984 and 2004, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Encore Operating, L.P. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Judkins, McKnight, San Angelo, Clear Fork.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.15M barrels of oil and 4.43M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 81 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
