Waddel TR 1-W #1173 (API 42-103-32987) is a plugged well in Crane County, plugged April 11, 2023, last operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 10, 1982, permitted to 3,750 ft.

It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, Waddell.

Its lease has reported 10.2M barrels of oil and 12M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 343 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.
