Gaines County · Boydell (Queen) field · Vertical
Bailey #17 (API 42-165-37212) is a well in Gaines County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed June 29, 2023.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2010 and 2023, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Contango Resources, LLC and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen, Tubb, Clear Fork, Wichita-Albany.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.27M barrels of oil and 5.51M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 29 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
