Cass County · Kildare field · Vertical
Cain A #A3 (API 42-067-30490) is a plugged well in Cass County, plugged September 16, 1993, last operated by Buffco Production Inc..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 24, 1984, permitted to 6,200 ft.
It was permitted by Sklar & Phillips Oil CO. and has since transferred to Buffco Production Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including T. Nacatoch, Pecan Gap, Top Mass. Anhy., Lower Anhy. Stringer.
Its lease has reported 404 barrels of oil and 429 mcf of gas since January 1993, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
