Johnson W.D.-B- #4 (API 42-301-31519) is a plugged well in Loving County, plugged May 21, 2021, last operated by QP Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 2, 2009, permitted to 6,500 ft.

It was permitted by Tom E. Johnson Exploration LLC and has since transferred to QP Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 127K barrels of oil and 206K mcf of gas since July 2007, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
