Upton County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Producing · Horizontal
Davidson 36a #18H (API 42-461-40052) is a horizontal well in Upton County operated by Ovintiv USA Inc., completed July 23, 2015 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 25, 2015, permitted to 8,984 ft.
It was permitted by Encana Oil & Gas(USA) Inc. and has since transferred to Ovintiv USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 10 formation tops, including Yates, Grayburg, San Andres, Clear Fork.
Its lease has reported 1.28M barrels of oil and 5.83M mcf of gas since July 2015, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 8 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, 1 of it with a digital LAS file, the latest received May 17, 2018. Gamma ray. 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.
