Howard County · Vealmoor East field · Vertical
East Vealmoor Unit #6 (API 42-227-03194) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged March 31, 2025, last operated by Surge Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 8, 2010, permitted to 7,540 ft.
It was permitted by Apache Corporation and has since transferred to Surge Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Canyon.
Its lease has reported 3.7M barrels of oil and 10.7M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in March 2026. The lease carries 91 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
