Connell W. E. Nct-1 #43D (API 42-135-01453) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged August 28, 2025, last operated by Cross Timbers Energy LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2006 and 2012, permitted to 8,948 ft.

It was permitted by Xto Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Cross Timbers Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Fusselman, Ellenburger.

Its 3 leases have reported 207K barrels of oil and 241K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
