Yoakum County · Sable (San Andres) field · Vertical
Sable San Andres Unit #50 (API 42-501-31948) is a plugged well in Yoakum County, plugged January 21, 2016, last operated by Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 9, 1981, permitted to 5,550 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Whiting Oil And Gas Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 2.87M barrels of oil and 7.82M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 74 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
