Estes E. W. #246 (API 42-475-31752) is a plugged well in Ward County, plugged December 14, 2020, last operated by Two P Partners LLC.

The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1978 and 1984, permitted to 9,600 ft.

It was permitted by Gulf Oil Corp. and has since transferred to Two P Partners LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers, Queen.

Its 2 leases have reported 4.95M barrels of oil and 6.79M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 262 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.
