Sau 44 #2B (API 42-383-35248) is a well in Reagan County operated by Apache Corporation, completed January 26, 2003 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2022.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 1, 2002, permitted to 8,248 ft.

It was permitted by Mariner Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Spraberry, Dean.

Its lease has reported 695K barrels of oil and 4.31M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 19 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
