East Ackerly Dean Unit #74
Dawson County · Ackerly (Dean Sand) field · NO Production · Vertical
East Ackerly Dean Unit #74 (API 42-115-32453) is a well in Dawson County operated by Mule Kick Operating LLC, completed January 20, 1988 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 5, 1987, permitted to 8,760 ft.
It was permitted by Conoco Inc. and has since transferred to Mule Kick Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including San Andres, Spraberry, Jo Mill, Dean.
Its lease has reported 6.72M barrels of oil and 3.99M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in July 2026. The lease carries 109 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.
Wells nearby
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.

Mule Kick Operating LLC's other wells filed under this lease name in Dawson County, newest permit first. The RRC gives a gas well its own lease number, so the name is what joins the wells of a unit.

Operator on the lease's P-4
Each operator named on the P-4 filings for this well's lease (a gas well is its own lease), from the date its filing took effect. The P-4 is filed by lease, so a date before the well was drilled is the lease's.
