Morales Pedro #3 (API 42-163-32278) is a plugged well in Frio County, plugged April 7, 1993, last operated by Blackbrush O & G LLC.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1983 and 1997, permitted to 7,500 ft.
It was permitted by Baxter, Kelly H. Oil And Gas CO. and has since transferred to Blackbrush O & G LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Wilcox, Escondido, Navarro, Olmos.
Its 2 leases have reported 34.7K barrels of oil and 32 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit.
