Atkinson #3 (API 42-235-32509) is a plugged well in Irion County, plugged October 1, 2025, last operated by Bustamante Oil Company.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued January 31, 1985, permitted to 7,100 ft.

It was permitted by Indian Wells Oil Company and has since transferred to Bustamante Oil Company on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Base Cretaceous (marker), San Angelo, Clear Fork, Leonard.

Its lease has reported 10.5K barrels of oil and 328K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in March 2026. The lease carries 6 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
