Elder B #17H (API 42-123-35274) is a horizontal well in De Witt County operated by Devon Energy Production CO L.P., completed August 6, 2025 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 29, 2023, permitted to 14,000 ft.
It was permitted by Bpx Operating Company and has since transferred to Devon Energy Production CO L.P. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Catahoula, Frio, Vicksburg, Yegua.
Its lease has reported 4.32M barrels of oil and 8.66M mcf of gas since July 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
