Ector County · Goldsmith W. (Clear Fork Up.) field · Injection · Vertical
West Goldsmith Unit #2303W (API 42-135-35045) is a well in Ector County operated by Aghorn Operating Inc., completed November 8, 1985 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 30, 1985, permitted to 4,530 ft.
It was permitted by Cities Service Oil & Gas Corp. and has since transferred to Aghorn Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 1.17M barrels of oil and 2.56M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in February 2026. The lease carries 156 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 15.7K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through September 2025.
