Goldsmith C. A. Etal #2516 (API 42-135-43364) is a well in Ector County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed January 9, 2016 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued June 22, 2015, permitted to 6,687 ft.

It was permitted by Xto Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Queen, Grayburg.

Its lease has reported 18.5M barrels of oil and 43.1M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 884 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.
