Simpson #1 (API 42-329-32984) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged March 25, 2021, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued December 27, 1993, permitted to 10,000 ft.

It was permitted by Stephens, Autry C. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean, Wolfcamp.

Its lease has reported 152K barrels of oil and 314K mcf of gas since March 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 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.
