Crane County · Sand Hills (Wojcik-McElroy) field · Producing · Vertical
Lea P. J. B #16 (API 42-103-32538) is a well in Crane County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed January 27, 1995 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1981 and 1995, permitted to 3,250 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 7.13K barrels of oil and 286K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
