University 16-18 #1 (API 42-371-36274) is a plugged well in Pecos County, plugged November 23, 2005, last operated by Prime Operating Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 14, 1990, permitted to 7,000 ft.
It was permitted by Bright & CO. and has since transferred to Prime Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including T/San Andres, T/Tubb, T/Wolfcamp, T/Penn.
Its lease has reported 15.7K barrels of oil and 355K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2006. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
