Howard County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut IN · Horizontal
Memphis Flash 39-27 #2A (API 42-227-41861) is a horizontal well in Howard County operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC, completed August 6, 2023 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 19, 2022, permitted to 9,000 ft.
It was permitted by Laredo Petroleum, Inc. and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, San Andres, Glorieta.
Its lease has reported 662K barrels of oil and 870K mcf of gas since March 2018, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
