University 30 #2
Ward County · War-Wink (Cherry Canyon) field · Shut IN · Vertical
University 30 #2 (API 42-475-31971) is a well in Ward County operated by Wtg Exploration, completed March 23, 1995 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1979 and 1995, permitted to 7,236 ft.
It was permitted by R K Petroleum Corporation and has since transferred to Wtg Exploration on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Lamar, Ramsey, Cherry Canyon, B/Manzanita.
Its 2 leases have reported 242K barrels of oil and 508K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
