Cowden #2 (API 42-317-32925) is a well in Martin County operated by North American Resources Company, completed September 21, 1984.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1984 and 2010, permitted to 11,200 ft.

It was permitted by Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. and has since transferred to North American Resources Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Spraberry, Dean, Strawn.

Its 2 leases have reported 53.1K barrels of oil and 338K mcf of gas since January 1993, 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.
