Baird W. E. #1865 (API 42-495-31040) is a plugged well in Winkler County, plugged July 8, 2004, last operated by Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 9, 1979, permitted to 3,500 ft.
It was permitted by Chevron U. S. A. Inc. and has since transferred to Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 270K barrels of oil and 1.17M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 54 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
