Mcknight M. B. #223 (API 42-103-35494) is a well in Crane County operated by Ring Energy Inc., completed June 6, 2021.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2007 and 2022, permitted to 6,500 ft.

It was permitted by Stronghold Energy II Oper, LLC and has since transferred to Ring Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including San Andres, Holt, Clear Fork, Tubb.

Its 2 leases have reported 8.29M barrels of oil and 38.5M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 220 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
