Smith F. G. #1 (API 42-495-03295) is a well in Winkler County operated by Union Oil Company Of California, completed March 6, 1979.

The RRC has issued 4 drilling permits between 1981 and 2000, permitted to 9,080 ft.

It was permitted by Prize Operating Company and has since transferred to Union Oil Company Of California on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Clear Fork, Wolfcamp, Devonian.

Its 2 leases have reported 551K barrels of oil and 5.48M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 17 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 970K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through August 2025.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
