Blassingame #3 (API 42-227-34129) is a plugged well in Howard County, plugged January 8, 2020, last operated by Surge Operating LLC.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 14, 1987, permitted to 10,150 ft.

It was permitted by EP Operating Company and has since transferred to Surge Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Wolfcamp, Canyon, Strawn, Atoka.

Its lease has reported 203K barrels of oil and 427K 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.

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