Sherman #2 (API 42-165-31356) is a well in Gaines County operated by Maverick Operating LLC, completed June 28, 1978 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 17, 1978, permitted to 5,600 ft.
It was permitted by Hytech Energy Corporation and has since transferred to Maverick Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 138K barrels of oil and 6.45K 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.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 44.8K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through October 2025.
