WELL · 42-145-30627 · DISTRICT 5
McDowell #3
Falls County · Satin field · Shut IN · Vertical
Mcdowell #3 (API 42-145-30627) is a well in Falls County operated by Ggp Exploration Ltd., completed August 1, 1986 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued July 16, 1986, permitted to 1,200 ft.
It was permitted by K & D Enterprises, Inc. and has since transferred to Ggp Exploration Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, Woodbine, Buda, Georgetown.
Its lease has reported 3.75K barrels of oil and 19 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.
Operator of record
