Mcknight M. B. #170 (API 42-103-33666) is a well in Crane County operated by Ring Energy Inc., completed April 10, 1985 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 15, 1985, permitted to 3,705 ft.
It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Ring Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Mcelroy, Judkins.
Its lease has reported 1.1M barrels of oil and 6.95M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 86 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
