Tunnell #1
Hockley County · Levelland NE. (Clear Fork 6985) field · Producing · Vertical
Tunnell #1 (API 42-219-10010) is a well in Hockley County operated by Aviator Energy LLC, completed July 8, 1978 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 24, 1978, permitted to 10,089 ft.
It was permitted by Universal Resources Corp. and has since transferred to Aviator Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 112K barrels of oil and 289 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
