Block -A- 22 Unit #2220 (API 42-165-33394) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged June 18, 2015, last operated by Parallel Petroleum LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 8, 1985, permitted to 4,300 ft.

It was permitted by Wood, Mcshane & Thams and has since transferred to Parallel Petroleum LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, Queen.

Its lease has reported 148K barrels of oil and 70.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2016. The lease carries 28 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
