Andrews County · Three Bar (Devonian) field · Vertical
Three Bar Unit #79 (API 42-003-34117) is a plugged well in Andrews County, plugged November 29, 2022, last operated by Hilcorp Energy Company.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 27, 1984, permitted to 8,700 ft.
It was permitted by Amoco Production CO.-Andrews and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Rustler, Grayburg, Devonian, Silurian (undifferentiated).
Its lease has reported 1.91M barrels of oil and 2.6M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 83 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
