Hardeman L.A. #3 (API 42-055-31492) is a well in Caldwell County operated by Bbc Production Company Inc., completed August 13, 1980 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 27, 1980, permitted to 2,800 ft.
It was permitted by Texaroda Oil Company and has since transferred to Bbc Production Company Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 7.98K barrels of oil and 1.28K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
