Winkler County · Keystone (San Andres) field · Vertical
Waddell #401 (API 42-495-32272) is a well in Winkler County operated by Formentera Operations LLC, completed December 4, 1995.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1989 and 1995, permitted to 5,400 ft.
It was permitted by Vista Resources, Inc. (A) and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Seven Rivers, Colby, San Andres, Holt.
Its 3 leases have reported 2.05M barrels of oil and 3.05M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 187 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
