Winston #44
Gaines County · Newsom (Yates) field · Temp Abandoned · Vertical
Winston #44 (API 42-165-31766) is a well in Gaines County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed March 11, 2009 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2010.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1980 and 2009, permitted to 7,380 ft.
It was permitted by Noble Energy Inc and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, Glorieta, Clear Fork, Lower Cleafork.
Its 2 leases have reported 20.4M barrels of oil and 10M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 146 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
