Gaines County · V & S (San Andres) field · Vertical
Neill Otis #1 (API 42-165-31326) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged January 31, 1997, last operated by Kinney Incorporated.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 9, 1978, permitted to 5,100 ft.
It was permitted by Estoril Producing Corporation and has since transferred to Kinney Incorporated on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 42.5K barrels of oil and 135 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
