Shirk 1 #2 (API 42-461-33576) is a well in Upton County operated by Petroplex Energy Inc., completed August 7, 2001.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1995 and 2009, permitted to 11,000 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Petroplex Energy Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 7 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Queen, Clear Fork.
Its 2 leases have reported 96.3K barrels of oil and 744K mcf of gas since October 1995, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
