Katz (Strawn) Unit #63 (API 42-433-01465) is a well in Stonewall County operated by Atlas Operating LLC, completed May 20, 2019.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued September 9, 2009, permitted to 7,000 ft.

It was permitted by Kinder Morgan Production CO LLC and has since transferred to Atlas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Coleman Junction, Palo Pinto, Gunsight, Katz Sand 1st.

Its 5 leases have reported 15.5M barrels of oil and 30.5M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 344 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
