Jones 22-7 #3 (API 42-165-35061) is a plugged well in Gaines County, plugged August 6, 2024, last operated by Black Sheep Oil & Gas LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued October 2, 1996, permitted to 3,500 ft.

It was permitted by Minihan Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Black Sheep Oil & Gas LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Yates.

Its 2 leases have reported 110 barrels of oil and 9.62K mcf of gas since July 1997, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 10 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
