Mcbrenda #1 (API 42-317-32877) is a well in Martin County operated by Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc., completed March 11, 1984 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 27, 1983, permitted to 9,500 ft.
It was permitted by Hcw Exploration, Inc. and has since transferred to Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Queen, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 180K barrels of oil and 400K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
