Caden #4303 (API 42-461-36046) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged March 20, 2025, last operated by Cog Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 12, 2008, permitted to 10,800 ft.
It was permitted by Henry Petroleum LP and has since transferred to Cog Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including T. Clearfork, T. Spraberry, T. Dean, T. Wolfcamp.
Its lease has reported 1.05M barrels of oil and 3.74M mcf of gas since May 2008, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Nov 18, 2011. 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.
