Waddel TR 1-W #1261 (API 42-103-34922) is a plugged well in Crane County, plugged February 24, 2015, last operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued April 30, 2003, permitted to 3,600 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 4 formation tops, including Yates, Mcelroy, Grayburg, San Andres.

Its lease has reported 10.2M barrels of oil and 12M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 343 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.
