Mcknight M.B. #480H (API 42-103-36247) is a horizontal well in Crane County operated by Ring Energy Inc., completed December 13, 2013.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 2013 and 2020, permitted to 9,000 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 Yates, Queen, San Andres, Holt.

Its 2 leases have reported 4.89M barrels of oil and 29M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 178 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.
