Mitchell #4001
Loving County · Two Georges (Bone Spring) field · Shut In · Vertical
Mitchell #4001 (API 42-301-31148) is a well in Loving County operated by Wpx Energy Permian LLC, completed April 1, 2010 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2020.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 2003 and 2010, permitted to 17,520 ft.
It was permitted by Chesapeake Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Wpx Energy Permian LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Bell Canyon, Cherry Canyon, Brushy Canyon, Bone Spring.
Its 2 leases have reported 33.5K barrels of oil and 144K mcf of gas since June 2004, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
2 logs loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 11, 2012. Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
