Wichita County · Wichita County Regular field · Water Supply · Vertical
Roller B #8 (API 42-485-38004) is a well in Wichita County operated by Newport Operating LLC, completed January 17, 1982 and listed as water supply on the RRC schedule, shut in October 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 30, 1981, permitted to 1,761 ft.
It was permitted by Sls-Roller #1 Project and has since transferred to Newport Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Permian (undifferentiated), Thomas Sand.
Its lease has reported 36.1K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The lease carries 18 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
