Mcelroy J. T. Cons. #1599 (API 42-461-36838) is a plugged well in Upton County, plugged February 13, 2024, last operated by Scout Energy Management LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 15, 2010, permitted to 4,200 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 77.1M barrels of oil and 9.49M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 1,911 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received May 6, 2014. 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.
