Newton 43a #1HE (API 42-227-39262) is a horizontal well in Howard County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed September 6, 2018 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 11, 2017, permitted to 8,900 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 10 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry.

Its lease has reported 405K barrels of oil and 1.39M mcf of gas since September 2018, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
