May-Montgomery Unit #96 (API 42-219-36983) is a well in Hockley County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed November 30, 2007 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 14, 2007, permitted to 5,200 ft.
It was permitted by Occidental Permian Ltd. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Queen, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 4.93M barrels of oil and 1.58M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 87 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
