Knox W.D. #4 (API 42-429-32081) is a well in Stephens County operated by Eastland Operating L.L.C., completed February 28, 1979.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 20, 1979, permitted to 3,300 ft.
It was permitted by Noonan, James M. and has since transferred to Eastland Operating L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Strawn.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.19K barrels of oil and 91.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
