Welch Trust 8 #2 (API 42-383-39071) is a plugged well in Reagan County, plugged October 10, 2023, last operated by Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 13, 2014, permitted to 11,500 ft.
It was permitted by Parsley Energy Operations, LLC and has since transferred to Pioneer Natural Res. USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, San Andres, Spraberry.
Its lease has reported 249K barrels of oil and 873K mcf of gas since November 2014, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 19, 2017. Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
