Roach -A- #4 (API 42-475-33563) is a well in Ward County operated by Walbet Inc., completed April 10, 1985 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 31, 1984, permitted to 2,600 ft.
It was permitted by Graham, Bill J. Estate and has since transferred to Walbet Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Santa Rosa, Tansil, Yates.
Its lease has reported 56.3K barrels of oil and 43.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
