Samba #901 (API 42-317-36931) is a well in Martin County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed January 21, 2012 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 2011 and 2013, permitted to 11,349 ft.
It was permitted by Midenergy Operating, LLC and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including U. Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.
Its lease has reported 291K barrels of oil and 350K mcf of gas since January 2012, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
2 logs loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Dec 1, 2017. Density, Neutron. 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.
