Hankamer E. C. #3 (API 42-071-31949) is a plugged well in Chambers County, plugged July 15, 2020, last operated by Puls Operating Company.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1991 and 1998, permitted to 7,350 ft.
It was permitted by Puls, W. L. and has since transferred to Puls Operating Company on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Miocene (undifferentiated).
Its 2 leases have reported 80.2K barrels of oil and 24.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in September 2020. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
