Upton County · Pegasus (Consolidated) field · Producing · Vertical
Powell V. J. 17 #1 (API 42-461-31749) is a well in Upton County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed November 16, 1981 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 27, 1981, permitted to 8,700 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 39.9K barrels of oil and 170K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
