Ward 127 #23 (API 42-435-38991) is a well in Sutton County operated by Upp Operating LLC, completed October 3, 2008 and listed as swr-10-well on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended twice), issued May 23, 2008, permitted to 8,443 ft.
It was permitted by Highmount Expl & Prod Texas LLC and has since transferred to Upp Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Base Cretaceous (marker), Wolfcamp, Canyon, Strawn.
Its 2 leases have reported 598 barrels of oil and 284K mcf of gas since October 2008, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
