Sugg Ela C. -55- #3 (API 42-235-32318) is a plugged well in Irion County, plugged March 11, 1996, last operated by Apache Corporation.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 30, 1984, permitted to 6,500 ft.

It was permitted by Energy Reserves Group, Inc. and has since transferred to Apache Corporation on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Spraberry, Clear Fork, Dean.

Its lease has reported 143K barrels of oil and 273K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2019. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
