Pecos County · Yates field · Injection · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Yates Field Unit #23B53 (API 42-371-34867) is a horizontal well in Pecos County operated by Kinder Morgan Production CO LLC, completed December 6, 2023 and listed as injection on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1994, permitted to 1,524 ft.
It was permitted by Marathon Oil Company and has since transferred to Kinder Morgan Production CO LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Base (Creataceous), Base Cretaceous (marker), Yates, Seven Rivers.
Its lease has reported 322M barrels of oil and 1.03B mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 1,725 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.
Wells nearby
Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
