Rio Vista #1 (API 42-371-37221) is a well in Pecos County operated by Orbit Crude Inc., completed March 26, 2007.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 9, 2002, permitted to 4,200 ft.

It was permitted by Central Drilling Company, USA and has since transferred to Orbit Crude Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, Clear Fork.

Its 2 leases have reported 24.6K barrels of oil and 108K mcf of gas since February 2003, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 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.
