Powell 9A #23D
Glasscock County · Blalock Lake S.(wolfcamp) field · Vertical
Powell 9a #23D (API 42-173-32326) is a well in Glasscock County operated by Oxy USA Inc., completed May 22, 2018.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 19, 1993, permitted to 8,500 ft.
It was permitted by Trend Exploration Company and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including San Andres, Spraberry, Clear Fork, Dean.
Its 2 leases have reported 6.67M barrels of oil and 14.7M mcf of gas since June 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 726K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through January 2026.
