Tipps R. E. #3 (API 42-219-32402) is a well in Hockley County operated by Bullin R. E. Operating Inc., completed January 7, 1978.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued December 6, 1977, permitted to 5,000 ft.
It was permitted by Whiteface Oil and has since transferred to Bullin R. E. Operating Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including San Andres.
Its lease has reported 41.2K barrels of oil and 12.6K 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.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 10.8K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through February 2026.
