Crane County · Sand Hills (Tubb) field · Vertical
Sand Hills Tubb Unit #53 (API 42-103-33233) is a plugged well in Crane County, plugged December 4, 2025, last operated by Formentera Operations LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1989, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including San Angelo, Tubb, Wichita-Albany.
Its 2 leases have reported 2.28M barrels of oil and 4.65M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 91 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
