Cwei-Chk 197-13 #1 (API 42-389-32796) is a plugged well in Reeves County, plugged September 15, 2025, last operated by Noble Energy Inc.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 5, 2011, permitted to 13,500 ft.
It was permitted by Williams, Clayton Energy, Inc. and has since transferred to Noble Energy Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Bell Canyon, 3rd Bone Sand, Wolfcamp.
Its lease has reported 137K barrels of oil and 215K mcf of gas since August 2011, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Aug 6, 2014. Density, 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.
