Gentry #1623 (API 42-227-36934) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged August 26, 2022, last operated by Oxy USA Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 23, 2012, permitted to 10,500 ft.

It was permitted by Meritage Energy Company, LLC and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp, Strawn.

Its lease has reported 30.5K barrels of oil and 99.3K mcf of gas since April 2012, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
