Waddell TR A #1235 (API 42-103-33028) is a plugged well in Crane County, plugged November 8, 2024, last operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1982 and 2006, permitted to 3,700 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 3 formation tops, including Yates, Mcelroy, Judkins.

Its 2 leases have reported 5.18M barrels of oil and 34.6M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 259 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.
