Pierson William Estate #20 (API 42-165-34658) is a well in Gaines County operated by Xto Energy Inc., completed January 20, 1994.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 5, 1993, permitted to 6,900 ft.

It was permitted by Cross Timbers Operating Company and has since transferred to Xto Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including San Andres, Glorieta, 6600 Clfk, Clear Fork.

Its 2 leases have reported 999K barrels of oil and 618K 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.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
