Kelley Laura Nelms #4 (API 42-225-30667) is a well in Houston County operated by HD Operating CO LLC, completed August 10, 1987.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 20, 1986, permitted to 1,800 ft.

It was permitted by P.A.M. Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to HD Operating CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Queen, Queen City, Carrizo, Wilcox.

Its lease has reported 54.8K barrels of oil and 9 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 174K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through December 2025.

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