Duke #1
Gaines County · Tex-Mex SE. (Wichita Albany) field · Producing · Vertical
Duke #1 (API 42-165-37416) is a well in Gaines County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed June 25, 2015 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 10, 2011, permitted to 7,855 ft.
It was permitted by Sandridge Expl. And Prod., LLC and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Tubb, Clear Fork, Whichita/Albany, Wichita-Albany.
Its lease has reported 366K barrels of oil and 1.38M mcf of gas since September 2011, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Aug 26, 2014. Density, Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
