Settles W. R. #4 (API 42-227-03526) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged December 3, 1996, last operated by Sheridan Production Company LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 25, 1996, permitted to 2,700 ft.

It was permitted by Oryx Energy Company and has since transferred to Sheridan Production Company LLC on the wellbore schedule.
