Billy The Kid 31-24 Unit A #31H (API 42-389-35831) is a horizontal well in Reeves County operated by Noble Energy Inc, completed August 18, 2018 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued March 30, 2017, permitted to 13,000 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 lease has reported 2.09M barrels of oil and 6.54M mcf of gas since September 2017, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
