Waddell #185

Shut in

Winkler County · Keystone (San Andres) field · Shut In · Vertical

Waddell #185 (API 42-495-01337) is a well in Winkler County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed October 7, 2010 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in May 1, 2011.

The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1984 and 1985, permitted to 8,123 ft.

It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including San Andres, Holt, Tubb, Wichita-Albany.

Its lease has reported 502K barrels of oil and 1.14M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 30 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
