EL Rancho E Unit B #1WA
Martin County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Horizontal
El Rancho E Unit B #1WA (API 42-317-42923) is a horizontal well in Martin County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed March 3, 2020.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended twice) between 2020 and 2022, permitted to 10,500 ft.
It was permitted by Petrolegacy Energy II, LLC and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 11 formation tops, including Santa Rosa, Yates, Queen, Grayburg.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.07M barrels of oil and 1.24M mcf of gas since March 2020, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
