Letha #1
Midland County · Brazos (San Andres) field · Horizontal
Letha #1 (API 42-329-31087) is a plugged horizontal well in Midland County, plugged December 29, 2021, last operated by Tripod Oil And Gas 3 LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1982 and 1995, permitted to 4,700 ft.
It was permitted by Prime Operating Company and has since transferred to Tripod Oil And Gas 3 LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Queen, Grayburg.
Its lease has reported 620K barrels of oil and 19 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Prime Operating Company; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
