Easter Deep #3 (API 42-003-35414) is a plugged well in Andrews County, plugged October 15, 2009, last operated by Morningstar Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 27, 1986, permitted to 9,600 ft.

It was permitted by Union Oil Company Of California and has since transferred to Morningstar Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian, Canyon, Strawn.

Its lease has reported 83.9K barrels of oil and 151K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
