Covington-Brown #1 (API 42-433-31093) is a plugged well in Stonewall County, plugged August 25, 1999, last operated by Ridglea Energy I LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 20, 1980, permitted to 6,400 ft.
It was permitted by Markay Oil & Gas Company and has since transferred to Ridglea Energy I LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 18.6K barrels of oil and 469 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
