Foster Gbsa Unit #221 (API 42-135-38842) is a plugged well in Ector County, plugged July 19, 2012, last operated by Oxy USA Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 22, 2005, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Latigo Petroleum Texas, LP and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Queen, Grayburg, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 1.48M barrels of oil and 585K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 131 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
