Ellis B #3W (API 42-219-35345) is a plugged well in Hockley County, plugged November 19, 2015, last operated by Burk Royalty CO. Ltd..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued September 6, 1988, permitted to 6,700 ft.

It was permitted by Wheeler Properties and has since transferred to Burk Royalty CO. Ltd. on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 2 formation tops, including Pi Sand, Glorieta.

Its lease has reported 400K barrels of oil and 128K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 12 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.
