Powell E.L. #1
Glasscock County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut In · Vertical
Powell E.L. #1 (API 42-173-33048) is a well in Glasscock County operated by Oxy USA Inc., completed May 25, 2001 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in September 1, 2001.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 18, 2000, permitted to 8,450 ft.
It was permitted by Range Production Company and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including San Andres, Clear Fork, L. Clearfork, Spraberry.
Its 2 leases have reported 5.1M barrels of oil and 12.5M mcf of gas since September 2001, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 40 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
