Denton A #1 (API 42-165-34398) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged August 19, 2020, last operated by Texland Petroleum L.P..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 16, 1991, permitted to 8,100 ft.
It was permitted by American Exploration Company and has since transferred to Texland Petroleum L.P. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 406K barrels of oil and 40.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by American Exploration Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
