Frio County · Big Foot field · Shut IN · Vertical
Thompson Dennis #3-I (API 42-163-00320) is a well in Frio County operated by Watson Energy Investments LLC, completed October 5, 1978 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 3, 1978, permitted to 3,880 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Oil Company and has since transferred to Watson Energy Investments LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its lease has reported 133K barrels of oil and 46.9K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 15 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
Operator of record
