Gray County · Panhandle Gray County Field field · Vertical
Mclaughlin #20 (API 42-179-32296) is a well in Gray County operated by Ponderosa TX Operating LLC, completed October 11, 1997.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 12, 1997, permitted to 3,400 ft.
It was permitted by Myriad Resources Corporation and has since transferred to Ponderosa TX Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 143K barrels of oil and 827K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 3.36K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through June 2025.
