Elkin #1 (API 42-329-32344) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged July 21, 2010, last operated by Legacy Reserves Operating LP.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 27, 1990, permitted to 8,200 ft.

It was permitted by Davis & Carr Energy CO. and has since transferred to Legacy Reserves Operating LP on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Clear Fork, Spraberry.

Its lease has reported 37.4K barrels of oil and 388K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2012. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
