Shell Shallow #4B (API 42-485-42248) is a well in Wichita County operated by R2q Operating LLC, completed December 10, 1990 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued October 30, 1990, permitted to 1,800 ft.
It was permitted by Bto Venture, Inc. and has since transferred to R2q Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 63.9K barrels of oil and 7 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
