Bates 13 #1 (API 42-227-36195) is a well in Howard County operated by New Height Energy LLC, completed March 20, 2009 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2025.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2008 and 2012, permitted to 9,770 ft.

It was permitted by Linn Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to New Height Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 104K barrels of oil and 243K mcf of gas since March 2009, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
