Waddell TR A #1491 (API 42-103-34404) is a well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed June 9, 2015.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 31, 1996, permitted to 4,800 ft.

It was permitted by Southland Royalty CO.-Midland and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including San Angelo, Tubb, Wichita-Albany.

Its 2 leases have reported 18.7M barrels of oil and 79.2M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 590 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.
