Caldwell County · Buchanan field · Vertical
Copeland #3 (API 42-055-33795) is a plugged well in Caldwell County, plugged December 7, 1995, last operated by Coalinga Corporation.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 27, 1984, permitted to 2,600 ft.
It was permitted by Keck, W. M. II and has since transferred to Coalinga Corporation on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Dale, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford, Buda.
Its lease has reported 4.56K barrels of oil and 21.8K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 16 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
