Cole John Otis #1 (API 42-227-34387) is a well in Howard County operated by Pitco Investments Ltd., completed December 30, 1988.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 30, 1988, permitted to 8,000 ft.
It was permitted by Samedan Oil Corporation and has since transferred to Pitco Investments Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wichita-Albany, Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian.
Its 2 leases have reported 10.9K barrels of oil and 415K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
