Hancock #2 (API 42-165-34191) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged November 17, 2016, last operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 26, 1990, permitted to 7,800 ft.
It was permitted by Petroleum Technical Services CO. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Tubb, Wichita-Albany.
Its lease has reported 683K barrels of oil and 1.61M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 12 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
