Verda #1 (API 42-389-33130) is a plugged well in Reeves County, plugged March 5, 2026, last operated by Chevron U. S. A. Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 21, 2011, permitted to 13,500 ft.

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

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Bone Spring, Wolfcamp.

Its lease has reported 296K barrels of oil and 630K mcf of gas since February 2012, 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.
