Sundown Unit #63 (API 42-219-36071) is a well in Hockley County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed December 20, 2021 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1994 and 2015, permitted to 5,104 ft.

It was permitted by Occidental Permian Ltd. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 14 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, San Andres, (Sa) Zone V.

Its lease has reported 6.42M barrels of oil and 2.47M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 103 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
