Winkler County · Keystone (San Andres) field  · Vertical

Waddell #402 (API 42-495-32347) is a plugged well in Winkler County, plugged November 27, 2018, last operated by Formentera Operations LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 22, 1990, permitted to 5,000 ft.

It was permitted by Mcshane, J. Inc. and has since transferred to Formentera Operations LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Yates, Colby, San Andres.

Its lease has reported 502K barrels of oil and 1.14M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 30 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.
