Willis 40 #3040 (API 42-329-31684) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged September 10, 2014, last operated by Endeavor Energy Resources L.P..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 3, 1986, permitted to 9,200 ft.

It was permitted by Baxter, Murphy H. and has since transferred to Endeavor Energy Resources L.P. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean.

Its lease has reported 72.7K barrels of oil and 252K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in June 2015. The lease carries 3 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.
