Estes E. W. #245 (API 42-475-31658) is a well in Ward County operated by Sundown Energy LP, completed December 10, 2010.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1978 and 2018, permitted to 9,600 ft.

It was permitted by Four Corners Petroleum II, LLC and has since transferred to Sundown Energy LP on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Rustler, Tansill, Yates, Wichita-Albany.

Its 2 leases have reported 296K barrels of oil and 2.08M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 23 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
