Powell 26-B #1
Upton County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut In · Vertical
Powell 26-B #1 (API 42-461-32146) is a well in Upton County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed June 7, 1984 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in February 1, 2019.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 10, 1984, permitted to 9,320 ft.
It was permitted by Cox, John L. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Cretaceous, Spraberry, Dean.
Its lease has reported 108K barrels of oil and 368K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in March 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
