Winterbotham B #2 (API 42-235-33732) is a well in Irion County operated by Cog Operating LLC, completed March 28, 1998.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 14, 1998, permitted to 6,950 ft.

It was permitted by Ricks Expl Acquisition Corp and has since transferred to Cog Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Dean, Wolfcamp, Canyon.

Its 2 leases have reported 6.18K barrels of oil and 46.4K mcf of gas since March 1998, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 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.
