Hello, can anyone tell me the current status of XTO’s Ranch Water Unit 1 in Martin Co. TX ? It’s on the RRC production site under Lse 64732 in Dist 8, but the production is showing “no report” since last October. Any ideas on how good the new wells may be ? I’m also curious about the reasoning behind having substantially fewer locations on Ranch Water Unit 1 as opposed to Ranch Water Unit 2 in the same sections. Thank you !
The wells are listed as Drilled UnCompleted or DUC. They have not been frac’d yet so cannot comment on performance yet. The wells are targeting several different reservoirs, so the spacing depends upon which well is in which reservoir and the predicted performance.

Thank you. I was thinking RRC Lease numbers weren’t assigned until the wells have been completed. I guess I was hoping for information not yet available on the RRC website.
RRC requires completion reports be filed by earlier of 90 days after completion of well (producing) or 150 days after drilling operations completed (rig leaves). If the well is DUC, the the operator must still file a completion report within the 150 days. The RRC may assign a lease number to the DUC well. After any new changes to wellbore, including frac of DUC, operator must file a new completion report within 30 days. Other sites get their information from the RRC website. It is generally difficult to get inside information from an operator before this time.
