Black Ranch D #4 (API 42-429-35624) is a well in Stephens County operated by Atlas Operating LLC, completed March 7, 1997 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 22, 1997, permitted to 3,999 ft.
It was permitted by Breck Operating Corp. and has since transferred to Atlas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Caddo.
Its lease has reported 92.7K barrels of oil and 26.6K mcf of gas since November 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
