Archer County · Archer County Regular field · Vertical
Wilmut Estate #3C (API 42-009-39515) is a plugged well in Archer County, plugged April 14, 2000, last operated by Helton Enterprises.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued March 13, 1986, permitted to 750 ft.
It was permitted by Ellis, Ken Oil CO. and has since transferred to Helton Enterprises on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Gunsight.
Its lease has reported 10 barrels of oil and 17 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in August 2003. The lease carries 14 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record
Permitted by Ellis, Ken Oil Co.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.
