Ector County · Jordan field · Vertical
Jordan University Unit #539 (API 42-135-35119) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged March 25, 1997, last operated by Citation Oil & Gas Corp..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 24, 1985, permitted to 3,800 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Citation Oil & Gas Corp. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Rustler, Salado, Yates, Seven Rivers.
Its lease has reported 9.39M barrels of oil and 5.5M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 300 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
