Nichols 30 #1 (API 42-317-35187) is a plugged well in Martin County, plugged February 4, 2025, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2008 and 2017, permitted to 12,000 ft.

It was permitted by Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Yates, Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its lease has reported 76.1K barrels of oil and 177K mcf of gas since July 2008, last reporting in March 2025. The lease carries 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.
