Settles A #8 D
Howard County · Howard-Glasscock (Glorieta) field · Vertical
Settles A #8 D (API 42-227-81853) is a well in Howard County operated by Legacy Reserves Operating LP, completed March 5, 1983.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 18, 1982, permitted to 3,000 ft.
It was permitted by Cities Service Company and has since transferred to Legacy Reserves Operating LP on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 15.3K barrels of oil since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 136K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through December 2025.
