Wight A. W. Mrs. -B- #4 (API 42-135-07383) is a plugged horizontal well in Ector County, plugged November 13, 2006, last operated by Oxy USA Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued February 27, 2002, permitted to 5,200 ft.

It was permitted by BP America Production Company and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 161K barrels of oil and 71.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 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.
