American National Life Ins. CO. #38 (API 42-475-31594) is a plugged well in Ward County, plugged December 7, 2001, last operated by Crescent Energy Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 26, 1977, permitted to 2,600 ft.
It was permitted by MR Oil Company and has since transferred to Crescent Energy Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Yates.
Its lease has reported 25.1K barrels of oil and 57.2K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 9 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
