Birch State Unit 23-26 #4313H (API 42-371-39513) is a horizontal well in Pecos County operated by Continental Resources Inc., completed February 7, 2018 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 31, 2017, permitted to 9,844 ft.
It was permitted by Parsley Energy Operations, LLC and has since transferred to Continental Resources Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Rustler, Glorieta, Grayburg, O'Brien.
Its lease has reported 1.99M barrels of oil and 3.53M mcf of gas since February 2018, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
