Howard County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Producing · Horizontal
Ward 17g #1HJ (API 42-227-39774) is a horizontal well in Howard County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed January 24, 2019 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 19, 2018, permitted to 10,000 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 10 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry.
Its lease has reported 510K barrels of oil and 1.01M mcf of gas since January 2019, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
