Altman #3 (API 42-219-33232) is a well in Hockley County operated by Blm Black Gold Properties Ltd., completed October 2, 1981 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued June 10, 1981, permitted to 6,200 ft.

It was permitted by Hmh Operators and has since transferred to Blm Black Gold Properties Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 83.4K barrels of oil and 277 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 2 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.
