Bexar County · Somerset field · Vertical
Thorne Lula O. Est #3 (API 42-029-30731) is a plugged well in Bexar County, plugged October 6, 2010, last operated by Petrosaurus Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 9, 1978, permitted to 1,325 ft.
It was permitted by Schimmel, V. I. and has since transferred to Petrosaurus Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 16.4K barrels of oil and 21 mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, with no volume in the three years through August 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Permitted by Schimmel, V. I.; the EWA schedule now lists a different operator.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
