Crier-Mcelroy #498 (API 42-461-34784) is a well in Upton County operated by Scout Energy Management LLC, completed September 18, 2008 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 11, 2005, permitted to 2,920 ft.

It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Scout Energy Management LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Rustler, Yates, Grayburg.

Its lease has reported 40.9M barrels of oil and 4.29M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 739 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.

Well logs

2 logs loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Sep 29, 2021. Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
