Wheeler Estate #34W (API 42-107-31872) is a well in Crosby County operated by Hexp Operating LLC, completed September 10, 2014 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 21, 2014, permitted to 4,390 ft.
It was permitted by Custer & Wright Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Hexp Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Glorieta, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 440K barrels of oil and 67 mcf of gas since April 1999, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 51 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Aug 3, 2017. 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.
