Mcelroy Ranch CO. -F- #27 (API 42-461-33933) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged April 19, 2017, last operated by Diamondback E&P LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 13, 1998, permitted to 10,000 ft.

It was permitted by Umc Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Bend.

Its lease has reported 372K barrels of oil and 5.39M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 23 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

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