Howard County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Vertical
Yarbar 16 #1 (API 42-227-36549) is a well in Howard County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed May 5, 2011.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2010 and 2019, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Encana Oil & Gas(USA) Inc. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Spraberry, Leonard, Wolfcamp, Cline.
Its 2 leases have reported 48.1K barrels of oil and 265K mcf of gas since April 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
