Ector County · Goldsmith (Grayburg) field · Temp Abandoned · Horizontal
Goldsmith C. A. ET AL #62 (API 42-135-00477) is a horizontal well in Ector County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed February 25, 1998 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2004.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 7, 1997, permitted to 4,707 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Grayburg.
Its 2 leases have reported 14.8M barrels of oil and 20.5M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 722 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
