Mcelroy Cons. NO. 1 #61 (API 42-461-35999) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged February 5, 2024, last operated by Scout Energy Management LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 22, 2008, permitted to 4,000 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 538K barrels of oil and 87.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 103 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
