Dyer 2988 #3 (API 42-059-33436) is a plugged well in Callahan County, plugged September 22, 2020, last operated by Van Operating Ltd..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 30, 1981, permitted to 4,200 ft.
It was permitted by Jones CO. and has since transferred to Van Operating Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including T/Gardner, T/Caddo, B/Caddo, T/Bond Sand.
Its 2 leases have reported 11.9K barrels of oil and 353K mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
