H & J Sec. 451 #9H
Gaines County · Russell North (Devonian) field · Shut In · Horizontal
H & J Sec. 451 #9H (API 42-165-01738) is a horizontal well in Gaines County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed October 26, 2010 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in January 1, 2025.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2006 and 2007, permitted to 10,869 ft.
It was permitted by Xto Energy Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including L/Clearfork, Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian, Mississippian.
Its lease has reported 2.53M barrels of oil and 921K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 33 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Jul 24, 2009. Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
