Stephens Kelly #16 (API 42-329-31982) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged July 11, 2016, last operated by Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 21, 1988, permitted to 10,700 ft.
It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Wolfcamp, Strawn.
Its lease has reported 73.8K barrels of oil and 213K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
