Hockley County · Smyer N. (Canyon) field · Vertical
Ellwood A #29 (API 42-219-00796) is a plugged well in Hockley County, plugged November 14, 2007, last operated by Apache Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 12, 1984, permitted to 10,066 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production CO.-Levelland and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Canyon.
Its lease has reported 99K barrels of oil and 68.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in December 2010. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
