Ketchum Mountain East Unit #503 (API 42-235-33461) is a well in Irion County operated by Apache Corporation, completed November 7, 2011 and listed as water supply on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2026.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 3, 1996, permitted to 4,520 ft.

It was permitted by Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Glorieta, Grayburg, San Andres.

Its 2 leases have reported 5.69M barrels of oil and 4.23M mcf of gas since February 1996, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 237 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.
