Sau 44 #1 (API 42-383-33846) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged December 10, 2015, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 15, 1987, permitted to 8,500 ft.

It was permitted by Trafalgar House Oil And Gas Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including San Andres, Spraberry, Jomill, Dean.

Its lease has reported 695K barrels of oil and 4.31M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 19 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.
