Walton J. B. #344 (API 42-495-32301) is a plugged well in Winkler County, plugged November 21, 2020, last operated by Formentera Operations LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued November 22, 1989, permitted to 3,000 ft.

It was permitted by Mobil Producing TX. & N.M. Inc. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Yates, Seven Rivers.

Its lease has reported 257K barrels of oil and 402K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 43 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

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