Andrews County · Three Bar (Wichita) field · Shut In · Vertical

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 28, 2016, permitted to 9,265 ft.
It was permitted by Occidental Permian Ltd. and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Wichita-Albany, Wolfcamp, Devonian.
Its 2 leases have reported 5.98M barrels of oil and 6.56M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 54 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
