Reeves County · Wolfbone (Trend Area) field · Producing · Horizontal
Soapy Smith 36 #1H (API 42-389-34480) is a horizontal well in Reeves County operated by Noble Energy Inc, completed February 15, 2016 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 8, 2014, permitted to 10,166 ft.
It was permitted by Rosetta Resources Operating LP and has since transferred to Noble Energy Inc on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Castile, Delaware, Bell Canyon, Cherry Canyon.
Its 2 leases have reported 238K barrels of oil and 702K mcf of gas since January 2015, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
