Cowden W. F. -C- Upper R/A -G- #63 (API 42-135-33111) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged September 29, 1992, last operated by Occidental Permian Ltd..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 24, 1979, permitted to 4,500 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production CO.-Andrews and has since transferred to Occidental Permian Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 121K barrels of oil and 74.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2015. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
