Orsborn #22 (API 42-269-31307) is a plugged well in King County, plugged October 10, 2005, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 21, 1984, permitted to 5,250 ft.

It was permitted by Conoco Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Katz, Katz/5100.

Its lease has reported 154K barrels of oil and 22.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 18 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.
