Ward County · Ward South field · NO Production · Vertical
Johnson W. D. #117 (API 42-475-31849) is a well in Ward County operated by Hard Rock O&G, completed September 28, 1979 and listed as no production on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 20, 1979, permitted to 3,200 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Midland and has since transferred to Hard Rock O&G on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 28.1K barrels of oil and 471 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
