American Breco Unit #3X
Fort Bend County · Rosenberg North (Frio 4800) field · Vertical
American Breco Unit #3X (API 42-157-32273) is a plugged well in Fort Bend County, plugged July 28, 2022, last operated by Cml Exploration LLC.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 29, 2004, permitted to 4,900 ft.
It was permitted by Patterson Petroleum LP and has since transferred to Cml Exploration LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Frio.
Its 2 leases have reported 80 barrels of oil and 1.68M mcf of gas since June 2004, with no volume in the three years through April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
Operator of record

Well logs
1 log loaded from the RRC's log index, the latest received Oct 10, 2007. Density, Gamma ray, Neutron, Resistivity. These are the logs loaded into Petrora from the Railroad Commission's inventories, not necessarily every log run on the well. The RRC holds the files; each opens from its log search for the well. The kind is the RRC's description of the log; the interval is the one filed for it.

"Spans" is by this well's own filed formation tops: a formation runs from its top to the next deeper top filed, and the deepest runs to the bottom of the log. Depths are measured along the wellbore, so on a horizontal the lateral counts in the formation it was landed in.
