Upton Z Fee #15 (API 42-461-33821) is a well in Upton County operated by Diamondback E&P LLC, completed July 9, 2002 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in November 1, 2015.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 24, 1997, permitted to 4,500 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco E & P Inc. and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers.

Its lease has reported 2.8M barrels of oil and 2.8K mcf of gas since November 1994, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 28 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
