Howard County · Howard Glasscock field · Vertical
Howard Glasscock East Unit #16 (API 42-227-31944) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged February 14, 2011, last operated by Apache Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 17, 1979, permitted to 2,500 ft.
It was permitted by Guthrie, A. K. Operating CO. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.46M barrels of oil and 97.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 139 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
