Howard County · Spraberry (Trend Area) field · Shut IN · Vertical
Johnson 2 #3 (API 42-227-37809) is a well in Howard County operated by Diamondback E&P LLC, completed April 4, 2014 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit (amended once), issued January 13, 2014, permitted to 12,000 ft.
It was permitted by Cobra Oil & Gas Corporation and has since transferred to Diamondback E&P LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 14 formation tops, including Yates, San Andres, Wolfcamp, Pennsylvanian.
Its lease has reported 97.1K barrels of oil and 181K mcf of gas since January 2011, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
