Whitaker R. #1H (API 42-165-00116) is a plugged horizontal well in Gaines County, plugged September 28, 1993, last operated by Amerada Hess Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 27, 2021, permitted to 12,745 ft.

It was permitted by Sloan Petroleum Inc. and has since transferred to Amerada Hess Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yate, Even Rivers, Queens, An Andres.

Its 2 leases have reported 31.7K barrels of oil and 1 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
