Crane County · Sand Hills (McKnight) field · Shut In · Vertical
Mcknight Sand Hills Unit #1821 (API 42-103-36423) is a well in Crane County operated by Blackbeard Operating LLC, completed August 26, 2015 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in September 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 7, 2014, permitted to 3,730 ft.
It was permitted by Burnett Oil CO., Inc. and has since transferred to Blackbeard Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen.
Its lease has reported 999K barrels of oil and 2.7M mcf of gas since February 2014, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 83 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Jun 19, 2018. Gamma ray. 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.
