Preston Martha Jane #1 (API 42-329-33649) is a plugged well in Midland County, plugged May 10, 2022, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 3, 1997, permitted to 8,900 ft.

It was permitted by Candelero Oil & Gas Company and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including T/Anhy, T/Tates, T/Grbg, T/Sadr.

Its lease has reported 71K barrels of oil and 207K mcf of gas since April 1997, 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.
