Powell E.L. #7
Glasscock County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut In · Vertical
Powell E.L. #7 (API 42-173-31920) is a well in Glasscock County operated by Oxy USA Inc., completed April 7, 2026 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1985 and 1987, permitted to 8,500 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production Company and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen, Clear Fork, Dean, Wolfcamp.
Its 2 leases have reported 5.14M barrels of oil and 12.6M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 42 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
