Crane County · McElroy field · Producing · Horizontal
King 9 #1H (API 42-103-36054) is a horizontal well in Crane County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed February 1, 2013 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 22, 2012, permitted to 3,041 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Seven Rivers, Queen, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 18.6K barrels of oil and 14.5K mcf of gas since February 2013, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Feb 2, 2016. Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
