Bad Brains State Unit 272-280w #9BS (API 42-389-40200) is a horizontal well in Reeves County operated by Apache Corporation, completed June 30, 2023 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued September 15, 2022, permitted to 11,750 ft.

It was permitted by Callon Petroleum Operating CO and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 8 formation tops, including Castile, Delaware, Bell Canyon, Cherry Canyon.

Its lease has reported 1.22M barrels of oil and 2.25M mcf of gas since January 2021, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
