Clay County · Bellevue SW. (Bryson) field · Vertical
Hodges #3 (API 42-077-31281) is a plugged well in Clay County, plugged February 4, 1997, last operated by Pruitt Oil & Gas.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 30, 1978, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Publishers Petroleum and has since transferred to Pruitt Oil & Gas on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 12.3K barrels of oil and 37.3K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in January 2008. The lease carries 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
