Gaines County · Jenkins North (Clear Fork) field · Vertical
Sparks T. E. #8 (API 42-165-34506) is a well in Gaines County operated by White Rock Oil & Gas LLC, completed December 20, 1992.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1992 and 2014, permitted to 7,400 ft.
It was permitted by Oxy USA Wtp LP and has since transferred to White Rock Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Queen, San Andres, Glorieta, Clear Fork.
Its 3 leases have reported 925K barrels of oil and 983K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 130K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through October 2025.
