Gaines County · Robertson N. (San Andres) field · Producing · Vertical
Robertson (San Andres) Unit #24 (API 42-165-31172) is a well in Gaines County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed January 28, 1998 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 5, 1977, permitted to 4,728 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Oil Company and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 4.7M barrels of oil and 1.66M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 73 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
