Cherokee County · White Oak Creek (Travis Peak) field · Producing · Vertical
New Birmingham B Gas Unit #3 #1 (API 42-073-30294) is a well in Cherokee County operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd., completed August 9, 1994 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1977 and 1994, permitted to 10,850 ft.
It was permitted by Marathon Oil Company and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Woodbine, Buda, Rodessa.
Its 2 leases have reported 3.57K barrels of oil and 3.75M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
