WELL · 42-079-32437 · DISTRICT 8
Starnes #3
Cochran County · Levelland field · Shut IN · Vertical
Starnes #3 (API 42-079-32437) is a well in Cochran County operated by Vision Oil And Gas LLC, completed December 15, 1989 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 24, 1989, permitted to 5,200 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Vision Oil And Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 53.6K barrels of oil and 44.5K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
