VJ Ranch - Impala 36 #1 (API 42-389-32788) is a plugged well in Reeves County, plugged November 21, 2025, last operated by Chevron U. S. A. Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended 3 times), issued March 24, 2011, permitted to 13,000 ft.

It was permitted by Patriot Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Chevron U. S. A. Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Rustler, Lamar, Bell Canyon.

Its lease has reported 78.4K barrels of oil and 80.7K mcf of gas since July 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 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.
