Caldwell County · Salt Flat West field · Vertical
Lincoln-Brown-B- #3 (API 42-055-31468) is a well in Caldwell County operated by E. T. Oil Company, completed January 6, 1981.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 13, 1980, permitted to 2,900 ft.
It was permitted by Lincoln Drilling CO. and has since transferred to E. T. Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 29.9K barrels of oil and 5.17K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 20 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
