University 31-8 #2H (API 42-103-35900) is a horizontal well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed February 24, 2012 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 27, 2011, permitted to 7,870 ft.

It was permitted by Devon Energy Production CO, L.P. and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wichita-Albany, Wolfcamp, Canyon.

Its lease has reported 29.8K barrels of oil and 40.3K mcf of gas since August 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 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.
