Howard County · Howard Glasscock field · Vertical
Settles W. R. -A- #3 (API 42-227-31577) is a well in Howard County operated by Taylor Two Energy LLC, completed January 6, 1989.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued February 10, 1978, permitted to 2,100 ft.
It was permitted by Howard, Linda D. and has since transferred to Taylor Two Energy LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 113K barrels of oil and 348 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
