Winkler County · Emperor (Holt) field · Vertical
Halley S. M. -B- #34W (API 42-495-31533) is a plugged well in Winkler County, plugged September 28, 2011, last operated by Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 28, 1982, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Sun Expl. & Prod. CO.-Midland and has since transferred to Basin Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 697K barrels of oil and 851K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 24 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Feb 12, 2009. Density, Neutron. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.
