McKnight M. B. #135
Crane County · Sand Hills (McKnight) field · Shut In · Vertical
Mcknight M. B. #135 (API 42-103-33040) is a well in Crane County operated by Ring Energy Inc., completed March 5, 2014 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2015.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 17, 1982, permitted to 3,570 ft.
It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Ring Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 1.11M barrels of oil and 6.96M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 86 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.
Wells nearby
Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.

Operator on the lease's P-4
Each operator named on the P-4 filings for this well's lease (a gas well is its own lease), from the date its filing took effect. The P-4 is filed by lease, so a date before the well was drilled is the lease's.
