Waddell TR A #1958 (API 42-103-35289) is a plugged well in Crane County, plugged June 24, 2025, last operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits (amended once) between 2006 and 2013, permitted to 6,000 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 11 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, Mcelroy, Judkins.

Its 4 leases have reported 42.6M barrels of oil and 179M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 1,393 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.
