Gaines County · Russell (Clearfork Consolidated field · Shut In · Vertical
Russell Clearfork Unit #65 (API 42-165-33371) is a well in Gaines County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed August 17, 1994 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2006.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 1994, permitted to 7,800 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Clear Fork.
Its 4 leases have reported 18.9M barrels of oil and 12.4M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 829 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
