Langley 43 #2 (API 42-227-38370) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged June 10, 2024, last operated by SM Energy Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 3, 2014, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Laredo Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to SM Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 12 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Glorieta, San Andres.
Its lease has reported 19.2K barrels of oil and 49K mcf of gas since October 2014, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, 1 of it with a digital LAS file, the latest received Apr 30, 2018. Gamma ray. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
